I get a call from the powder coater yesterday and he says he is going to ups overnight to me a sample of the color to make sure I like it before he starts. Then today he calls me and says there's a problem. While bead blasting the plenum they blew a 1/4 hole out the side where the wall is thin. Its on the bottom side where the port intersects with the big chamber. I know an awsome welder. Luckily its on the underside where nobody can see it. The powder coater knows what kinda car it is and I think the whole thing is making him nervous. I'm on my way over there to pick the plenum up to get it patched up while he powder coats the rest of the stuff.
