Get to Castleford Powdercoaters next to the Motosave shop and the Chemist's on Savile Road

He has this baby blue that he did for me and only charges about £25-£30 for a full blast and powdercoat

If you want the typical SE racing baby blue then yes it would be a bit lighter than this. But you will be restricted by what powdercoaters have got in stock and a lot of them don't like buying in small quants specially or if they do it may cost you quite a bit more

what costs the money at the powder coaters isnt the powder, but the set up
