Painted?

Should have went the powdercoat route dude, lot more durable than paint.

It's www.kingsparkbodyshop.co.uk who are doing it for me Ross.

Yeah painted Kev. I'd get it powercoated then a paint finish on top if I was paying. I do like the paint finish more than powdercoat, like you say though it's definitely not as durable.

I reckon I'll go for new badges Kev. I'll confirm tomorrow; could maybe pick them up at the weekend sometime along with the clips if that suits.

Very nice! Powder coating is better but when chipped shows up more due to the thicker coating it has.
