I had this one pair of front trunk springs medial blasted, polished and gold zinc plated.
I have one pair powder coated and three more pairs available on 5/20. The coated springs were stretched when powder coated so there are no ridges on the contact points like the original ones. $50 a pair or either plated or powder coated. Pat Garvey has first choice. Bruce Attached thumbnail(s) |

I had this pair of front trunk springs medial blasted, polished and gold zinc plated. I have several more pairs getting blasted and would like to hear if they look better plated of semi gloss powder coated which is closer to original finish. $50 for this pair. Bruce Bruce, They are gorgeous, but, if I needed some, I'd want the powder coated version. Nice! Pat |

I know that is not original finish and your concern for originality. They can also be wet painted. I develop a way to stretch the springs with a BMW jack so there were blasted clean inside and between the coils. I will have to stretch them for coating so the paint will not lease ridges where the coils contact. I prefer to powder coat them but will do a wet paint pair for you is you prefer that. Bruce |
