   right guys could someone please tell me if i would need a showcage powder coated or would it be worth while spraying it myself.Also if anyone can give me an estimate of how much it would cost to get it powdercoated would be magic.cheers.

   you could do it yourself and would be the cheapest way but...
   
   powder coating is way better but not the cheapest

   But if you weren't bothered by expense you wouldn't get a showcage
   Rattlecans will suffice, just prep the arse off it and put it in nice and gently

   a we thanks to you mufcdouble.
   Thats true mate but getting one for 100 of ebay lol.It would obviously be just for show so will probably get it powder coated as i hate scabby worksmanship,which would come from myself and couple of spray cans.

   If you're spraying it then use ETCH primer instead of normal high build primer
