After you buy all the crap you need to do a good paint job on your bike, you could spend a little more and get it powder coated, and it will actually last!
I think I paid like 250 bucks to have my frame, a arms, dog bone, all four hubs, spindels, brakes, sproket and brake hubs, and a few other things done. Powder isnt really all that expensive, and it last alot longer!
