Well I installed my nitrous a few days ago and had powdercoated my bottle. I got tired of sandblasting and just sanded the old powdercoat (what was left) and powdercoated it red. Turned out good except where the old powder was. So I got a new bottle that came with no caoting on it, just bare medal. Sand blasted it today and sprayed it with a silver metallic. Then added blue/silver flakes to the clear. Came out nice. Heres the pics, the flakes dont really show up in the pics but Ill try and get one in the sun to see.

Not bad at all. Still I prefer a ZEX bottle over any other bottle lol. Something about that purple. /Cheer to the fool who traded my NX bottle for the ZEX lawl.

Purple FTW
