theres nothing wrong with building the car right.

Many people powdercoat suspension and alot of other parts but not that many shops will give a good price scince most shops do mass production for bigger companies&gt; Try search around your area for shops. But if your just doing it on lca's IMHO it's not worth it just leave that coating on their you will be fine.

never dealt with that before but if your going to press in new bushings I would paint the parts before you do that! just be carefull when installing.
