As the title says really, what is the best way to make all my springs look the same by removing the colour coating off the springs?

Cheers

Just because i think it looks better, Bright Pink spings do not go that well with the colour of my shells.... Just being a tart really

I used paint stripper and just left a small amount NOT submerged to leave an identifying tag. Nitromorse was good.

Si why not ask Craig to do you a set to match your new shells he's doing for you. As he did a set of dark grey ones for my 2wd;)

You can also paint them with a can.

Does removing the powder coating affect the weight of the spring, I dare say it does! best bet is to paint them with a standard light coating of black automotive paint
