At least that's what they told me. So if you wanted the specific colour this guy does, then this is likely a good deal. Otherwise, stay with Jet.
The advantage you just mentioned does not apply to that CL post, if by custom you mean "Dark Red Gold Metallic". Even if you DID want that colour you could just do it yourself for $125 from another powdercoater place in 'sauga that Offhoff went to.

I see no advantage of using this guys "deal".

At jet Kote ($75) they pretty much have all the basic colours covered but if you wanted something special you'd have to pay extra. Can't be $50+ worth of extra though.
