i'm going to paint my Tein Coilovers red in the next couple of days...can anyone help me by giving info on what type of sandpaper or whatever to get the original green paint off of them and what type of paint, primer, clearcoat, etc. to use?

 

dude, dont ruin the coilovers. leave them as they are

 

how would repainting them red ruin them if i did it right. i'm not even painting the springs on them.

 

I would have to agree. If you are serious about doing this, you will need to sand all of the powdercoat off and them have them powdercoated the color that you want. I say powdercoat because it will hold up to the elements better than paint. Good luck with whatever you do.

 

so how much cash would this set me back to have them powdercoated? cause i really AM serious about this. i have a lot of work that i'm doing on my car.

 

Contact in good body shop and they should be able to do it for you. I have no clue on how much it is going to cost.
