Got this finished up for a clip for it and a blue one for another blue one also going to the same owner. And of course not all the requests I get are for low rider style so some are done in a standard style. Anodizing is also requested so here are more that way in various colors. Khaki and Blue Jean blue seem the most popular colors to me but both combined don't add up to the amount done bead blasted I don't think. Bead blasted seems the most durable. One of these is done with my STR on the outside. I've only done that this once upon request. I didn't like it and normally put that on the underside out of sight just like on my custom conversions which is how I'd prefer it personally.

Thanks

Can't do black. Sorry. You mean scratching right? Its going to scratch off easy. Thats why I like the bead blasted finish best. You can take that off and heat color it on the stove top if you have a gas burner open flame. It will vary in color but the heat coloring is from deeper in the material anodizing from the bottom up so to speak so its more durable. It will still scratch though just not as easily.

Some 400 grit emery cloth can also be taken to it to put a smooth even satin finish on it in a matter of a about a 30 minute sitcom of hand sanding if you would rather do that.
