Can the PPF be powder coated? - Page 2

Seems like I always hear words and terms like "supposedly" and "I heard that..."
But never anything authoritative that more than a powercoated red color separates the MS version from all the others.
Maybe it really is cryo'd or different metalurgy. For the sake of guys that have bought them, I hope that's true. But.....

Well for starters its a minority of the fd population that probably has those ppf. Probably the trailer queen part as well. As far as cryo treating things. I work at a vw shop and these guys have their transmission parts cryoed sometimes. It oh man, it works so well that they have the same failure rate as the guys that dont have their transmissions cryoed. Wait...that means it doesnt work at all i think? I think that it has technical merrit but when you get down to real world experience, i would have to say cryo treating is kind of like the salem witch trials. Its all crazy i tell you.
