Title: Price of anodizing
Post by: 500rider on March 16, 2004, 08:19:37 PM
Does anyone know how much it would cost to anodize vs paint?  For example .. how much for handle bar mount?

I was very in to paintball until I got the GS (selling my autococker and gear practically paid for my bike) .  I priced out anno several times and the cheapest I found a single color job was for $85 but easily went up over $300.  Keep in mind that this was for a block of aluminum about 12"x2"x3".

You can buy an anno kit for about 300 and do it your self (and have left overs).

Rob,

Were you looking for a specific color or just for protection?

I would probably go with black.  Not trying to colour match or anything.
