He is running a powder coating company and can do crackle powder coating. Luckily I had a spare cam cover in the boot of my car like and self respecting coupe owner does, so gave it to him. 1 week later I collected the result. I am really happy. I wanted it to be correct as I have an LE coupe and have previously brought brand new cam covers in the past only for the crackle red paint to start flaking within a couple of years. Hopefully this will be much more durable yet looks exactly the same. The finish is excellent and I would fully recommend his services. I will post his contact details in a bit once I get home. Oh and he also owns a fiat coupe to boot! 362bhp of warble

The coating can flake off and clog the engine. how much of the underside is done? There is a chap called Neil who posts on here and ebay regularly and he is very careful to avoid ad coating on any bits that might contaminate anything. On FCSS FB page there is a post about powder coating done wrong and clogging the internal bits.

Hi is he Nmag on ebay? I been following him for ages waiting for a rocker cover to pop up but it seems like he has gone into hibernation or something?
