I did the intake manifold on this black. The red is just spray paint, it was just a junk sr20 and I used the manifold to practice on.



300zx fuel filter braket and radiator brakets



300zx Water Pipes



Friends integra valve cover



Faces of my s2000's lug nuts






Thats all I can find right now. I really wish I still had the pics of my friends metallic red valve cover I did.

Interesting topic, any problems doing the powder-coating using an indoor over? Toxic fumes, etc?

^ Do NOT use an oven that you will be using to cook. It leaves fumes in there and will make any food you bake in there taste just like the powder, and I can't imagine its good for you either. Also the smell is pretty strong even outside. When you open the oven door you should wear a mask or cover your face to avoid breathing in all the fumes when pulling the parts out.

So if you plan on never cooking in your oven again, and you open up every window in your house, and can deal with a smell for a while, go for it. I wouldnt recommend it though!

Also any oven will work as long as it is electric (not gas) and you can control the temperature up to around 400-450 degrees F. I used an old kitchen oven for my big parts, and a $20 decent size electric toaster oven for my small parts.

Thought as much but wanted to check. It's a rental place and the only use we get out of the kitchen is storing parts for the S )
