Agreed but in floroesent colors green and yellow go hand in hand.

Google: Prismatic Powders and spend hours looking at the possibilities. Back in my Reo days I would send Rob a pound of a color and he would make me a mod or 2 with it hence the floro yellow sl/lap and the matching mini sl/lp unlike Rob however I don't have a powder coater on retainer.... YET! I think this is a direction I would like to go. Thinking back the powder coated Reo went through hell and when I sold it a year later it still looked great.
I like that yellow-green...would look .....in with yur carbon fiber...!

Looks like crappy gold to me. I think I'm going to have about 25 bodies dipped and stripped and make friends with my local powder coater. I think I will do batches of 5 or 10 of a certain color and sell them, take requests for colors and find an awesome powder, do a run of it and so on. I would rather do,that than try to sell a million mods to strangers. I'm contemplating pulling out of Facebook either altogether or at the bare minimum no more send ins from Facebook; it's just gotten to,be too much. Way too many tire kickers that have zero actual intent on following through on anything.
Yep I agree...crappy gold :facepalm:
How durable is powder coating as compared to the current type of anodizing ?

Ever had a powder coated Reo? The LBC and more than likely the LBC jr are 6160 aluminum just like the Reo. Durability should be the same.

Now that's a "REAL" Yellow. Also a possibility with this plan. You guys do realize I only have one production LBC right? That's about to change. I will say my clear 3D printed LBC is my daily driver though; not sure if that counts as production though. I'll post a screen cap of my escribe "device monitor" to show the longevity of the dna200 and my battery.

That svt is nice, I had a 2004 screaming yellow Mustang GT. Loved that car, just wasn't practical where I lived, too much snow. I regret selling it every damn day.

You are really tempting me. How long are we talking for it to be in my hands? Can you send me some pictures or drawings for the LBC JR. I'm thinking about 2 of those.

We haven't done a list in a while...
Who would be up for an LBC in glowing yellow over super chrome (like on the swing arm on the pictured motorcycle?

Here is my yellow-splatter GDNA-40

Yep...that's the yellow I would want. That with the black carbon fiber would make a really cool bumble bee. :thumbs: A neon version would be fine but not if it has a greenish cast. I would want it to scream YELLOW :D
