I have garaged the nova for the winter, and while its off the road i have decided to do a few more modifications to it again, the main one being stripping the interior out and fitting a roll cage and cobra bucket seats. My question is can you get safety devices cages supplied without the normal powder coating on because when the car is being sprayed again i would like to have the cage painted in the same colour as the car. I know its a bit of an strange question but does anybody know if it is possible?

calm down mike :oops: breath deeply :P . Right basically the car has developed a few minor imperfections on the roof so i spoke to trevor at AutoFit (who sprayed it, he's a top fella), and he says the only way to get a proper color match would be to strip all the paint off and respray the whole car from scratch (they have just had a new spray booth installed and he reckon the finish will be even better this time, like glass :lol:). The up side off this whole situation is that it is going to be done for free. Also he said that if i do all of the stripping down again he would arrange to have it trailered down and also he would paint my new cage the color of the car weld it in and also spray the engine bay too all for free :D . So it should be even more of a minter for next year. Cheers for the compliment by the way
