I use Don Jose plating, off of Palo Verde, they are cheap. Just for some ideas, they charged me $60 to chrome some ic hardpipes and a bunch of brackets and hardware, 40 to polish alternator, 40 for water outlet housing, 35 for turbo housing, 60 for the manifold, etc.

As far as powdercoating, I havent really done much of that.

nothing beats a 1jz for cleaning up an engine bay. See for yourself.

lol just teasing you.

Find a shop that does anodizing and powdercoating and have them do it all at once. They will more than likely be nice and do a 1 lot charge if you take everything in at once.

Hey Matt :slap: lol Umm we have the same oil cap biotch! w00t! Hey didn't you say you knew someone with some parts for me? PM me if you do....

yeah, he has a jdm longblock for $100, and a bunch of little spares. I can give you his number is you are interested... I don't know if you want to deal with shipping though.

Also, I have a friend here that is trying to get rid of a clean, low mileage soarer 1jzgte clip. $900.
