You had to go and post a pic. of the silver ones. now i want a silver set too! LOL (i like the blue though)

The blue look hot on your bike! The silver would look good too. The color is fairly well a close match.
 
Hey folks, just a Fyi. If anyone wants the anadiozed let me know. After much experimentation I have finally got this down. I am using dye from Oroc Dye and seems to be really strong. I found the thread here on how to DIY with fabric dye but that seems to be a little weak on durability. Went out and setup an account with these guys to see if theirs work better. So fa, its a much more durable color and then I add a clear coat to maintain the color. All I ask is for you to cover any shipping costs to and from GA.

BTW, this is just a scrap piece of aluminum I had sitting around. You will notice some spots in it. I didn't just drop it I threw it to the ground on a gravel driveway to see the durability of it with out clear coat on it. I think I'm gonna strip my wheels next and redo those, as I can see some chips in the color from this pic. [mad] I will post more pics of the the finished product in a few days. Gotta take my bike in for new fork seals and shifter seal on the primary. Thank God for the extended service plans huh, 50 bucks to do both. :D
 
The are already anodized - blue, gold, red or silver. Not to downplay what you are doing, as i appreciate what you are doing, but with the uttmost of due respect, maybe you want to start your own anodizing thread, or make your follow-up posts on an existing anodizing thread.
 
@Vtech. Not trying to step on your toes at all. Just trying to let people know I can do this if they can't on ANY part that is aluminum. Also, just bought a powder coat gun and oven, so if anyone wants that I can do it to. Only problem is the oven isn't big enough to do a frame, maybe a sub frame or wheel and smaller things. I will invest in a bigger oven later. I will start a new thread so as not to be on this one anymore, sorry bout that V.[cool]

Not a problem at all, like I said, I respect your work and want you to get the word out there any way you can. I just might need you to do some wheels for me :)
 
PM received from Dingo and replied to. Thank you Dingo!

So the answer is yes, I gladly ship internationally. All I ask you do is pay the differnce in actual additional shipping costs.
 
will you sell just those parts ^^ w/o the hardware? that way i can switch them around from blue to silver:D (how's the new lid treating you?)
 
Hi Joel

Yes, I can do them for $20 each ($80 for a set of four).

And the new lid is really awesome!
