    good question!
    cos then id have to have sanded it down, and because its round the paint would not have hit every part of it and becomes a massive amount of wasted paint. also because the rollcage has parts that the paint gun cannot reach..
    what i'm doing though is sending all my bars, underneath as well, to be powder coated in 1 same colour

    Hey guys.... Painting is finished, all that's left now is bodykit and FRP doors when they arrive, but yeah, the hardest part is finally over.
    As soon as I saw it i was just speechless. Hopefully you guys like it, I know I do

    Here's some when it was getting prepped, and some with the kit on all in one colour.

    I didn't flare them crazily, as I don't want to run too wide a rear, but they have been rolled and as a result of that they got flared slightly, if you look side to side with a stock rear guard mines actually come out quite a bit, it allowed me 10-15mm more track
