Powder Coating

Does anyone know of a company who can powder coat a frame and match the OEM KX Green. I have had two frames coated but I have never had a good match.

These guys are pretty good - made my frame look better than new, and it was the correct color also  :) , but they are here in Arizona.

What kind of money does powder coating cost.  I thought about doing it my frame but couldn't find anyone in the area that does it.

I stripped my frame down to the metal.

In NY they want almost 800 bucks to paint this frame correctly. F that!
I'm buying this system for powdercoating in the am.

I will post pics and results of the product. for 100 bucks plus paint I'll do it myself.

Anyone know if there is an exact match for the original Kawi green for a frame?
