What color? To do paint match powder coat I was quoted 250 or something like that. For yellow it's like 100. The color isn't off because I did a crappy job painting it's just the difference in material, no primer etc. In person it's really not that much off just didn't pop like I was wanting it to.

I guess just any color. I was thinking about doing red for mine. $250 doesn't seem too bad. I know the guy that does powder coating on SVTP will tear them down, coat them, and then reassemble them with new something (brain fart) and it's not too bad of a cost. Don't know an exact number though.
