Air Frame Colors

[lorne1176]

Looking at possibly changing the powder coat color on my Air Frames to white from black. Just wondering if anybody has a picture of thier black Pro with white boards to see wether it does justice or not.

Send me a photo and I can photoshop it. It would give you a good idea anyways.

It would probably look great for about 3 rides. Then they aren't going to be white, they will be boot black, pitch grey and that green stuff that comes off the trees. Oh and mud colored early and late in the year. My white Freeride was all those colors and exhaust grey/black very soon after purchase. IMHO white is a bad idea especially there.

Here is my "11 Skinz powdercoated everything for me. I've never had an issue with things getting discolored, other than the tree sap/barkView attachment 178303

Kestrel that looks awesome. Skinz did ALL the powder coating for you, even the original parts? How long did it take them?

Thanks, I like it. Skinz sent me, both bumpers, seat, Airframes, and the float plate, all powder coated white. I set it all up with them about September, and had my parts on Thanksgiving. Z-Bros also powdercoated my A-Arms white for me, before they shipped. My skid and spindles are going in next week. I was going to buy a "13 this year, but decided to put some money into this one and tweak a couple things. May still get a '13, and leave it stock though. Motor is getting fully rebuilt from crank up, got a new Tial Turbo going in, in place of the standard Garrett, FTX modded my chaincase, and 7T Avid AR's and anti stab are going in to turn the new Peak track. Should be a fun year, as long as CO actually gets some snow this winter!
