Wondering whether to have it powdercoated too. But I want that exact color.
I have long though of having my fan coated. I am just don't think regular paint is tough enough. Every little chip of paint in just sucked into the engine cooling fins. Look at some of the photos of painted fans. The front edges of the fan are all chipped up. That is why the factory just leaves them ugly.
