Very tidy all around, looking sharp, purple outside and a purple board too!
Well done! 8)

Very slick.  How did you get the purple with the pale lilac bits, or is it just the camera giving that effect?
Btw, what's the Rio, I'm guessing it's a riot by the LED combo and the 4580's?

Thereafter it finished with transparent purple powder coat. Therefore you look the different color-tone.
And yes, it is Suhr = Sure, Riot = Rio :)

Oh, I see. I thought you were coating yourself.
Would you happen to know of a local company that sells the powder per kg?

Thanks much!
Over here I can only get plain RAL colors (not even all of them  :-\ ) and everything else I've found is sold at 25kg minimum (which is ridiculous for hobby use).
