Has anyone ever plated, coated or chromed their injector lines? I have aVolkswagen 2 liter AAZ now, and the Giles pump is painted semi-gloss black. I'm having a valvecover chromed, and need something on the injector lines for good contrast. What have you done???? -... JOIN NOW TO REMOVE TRACER

Powder coating works great, just make sure all openings are firmly sealed before giving them to the tech. The great thing about powder coating is that you can get almost any color you wish, so matching other accessories is a breeze! -

Wouldn't you have problems with the nuts being painted/glued to the lines? -

Tape the threads so this wont happen. the powder coat only adds a couple of thousanths to the item being coated.I have done brake lines, calipers, steering boxs complete rear ends control arms, drive shafts, carburator parts and transmission cases, never had a problem a tap,die or wire brush wouldnt take care of.
