Default Drives - Paint or Powder Coat?

The old gals are taking one last ride to the drive shop for a freshen up, and then to market. What's the best way to go - paint them with a good paint like IMRON or take them to the powder coat shop?

They will be completely torn down, so baking them shouldn't be a problem with the seals.

Thanks in advance,
Brian

I would paint them with Imron. Always used it, always will. Alot cheaper to to and re-finish when the time arises.

The top of mine is powder done four years ago and the bottom I painted with Imron.
