Crash bars back from powder coat.
« on: August 18, 2016, 22:16:02 »
So a few weeks ago my strom fell off its stand and scraped up the crash bar on the left side pretty badly as it just seemed be painted....

I dropped them off at a company local to me for blasting and powdercoat in gloss black.

2 weeks (they were really busy) later and for the princely sum of £10 the bars are back on the vee and looking fantastic!

Nice! Which company did you use? My bars need sprucing up a bit too...
