Brendan--
There used to be a racing rule or something about painting suspension bits. Word at the time was "don't!" I'm sure things have changed. Paint was able to hide the early symptoms of stress cracks in some of the more critical bits. Plus, paint is heavy! The only time I took exception was for the real mag (magnesium) wheels and suspensionon uprights and hub carriers on my little race car. Paint protected them from deteriorating from atmospheric exposure. Other NDE inspection techniques were used on them.
I kinda like the look of all the different colors on the rear suspension bits in your avatar. Is the rest of the project anywhere near road-ready? Maybe we need to have a clinic at your house.

Yep, Greg Brown (Precision Motorwerks) is probably the best in the SoCal region for 928s. Then you can stop by 928 International (also in Anaheim) and check out those guys and their operation. A must for a SoCal 928 owners.
Very Impressive Mr Brendan
Hey Mr Randy V...Does your car have a front spoiler?
