Looks fantastic. Two questions

Was that powdercoat or just high-heat engine paint?

How much did either of those paint jobs cost?

there is 2 coats of primer and 2 coats of base black underneath this mystichrome so it should be ok. and i did it all myself i have a paint gun and kinda a booth so it was relatively cheap.
