system6 Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 Hi Is it a good idea/any probs to powder coat my gt6's rocker cover Thanks all in advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevegt6 Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 I suspect it would crack/flake/peel given the heat - I have one of those finned aluminium ones, and that does get pretty hot... I'm no expert, jmo You could get it anodised - assuming yours is also aluminium Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Bonnett Posted May 2, 2016 Share Posted May 2, 2016 I had mine on the GT6 powder coated silver with a lacquer and it was absolutely fine; no deterioration in the whole time I had the car. I had the air box done the same to match. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hypoid53 Posted May 4, 2016 Share Posted May 4, 2016 For what it's worth, I had my Spitfire rocker cover and air box powder-coated in 1999 and they are still looking good after 17 years of use! 🙂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
