Default Whipple Color Change

Is it possible (obviously disassembly required) to change the color of my Whipple stuff from the stock black color to the Merc Racing Blue.

Are we talking sandblasting and a real indepth project, or is it really not a big deal?

Powder coat?
Paint?
Anodizing?
Fusion coating?
Color by numbers?

If it is just a matter of a powder coating process then any color could be used. Interesting...

Any Ideas would help.

I don't know how big of a project it is but definately doable. I talked to dustin yesterday about it. He said you needed to disassemble it then Powdercoat and reassembel. He can do it , takes about 3 weeks, sorry didn't get a price.

I know... It's a joke, just like color by numbers.

I'm in Eddie Marines back yard and know all about them. Including the crappy service that at least I had received trying to buy something.

Dana Marine is on my drive home, they have killer stuff, and they have some cute chicks working there, so I much prefer them.
