well I think spray paint because powder coat can peel off
if you do a good job at spray paint and give it a good clear coat it should be fine

Power Coat for sure, I painted my whole scooter with spray paint, and it's just all scratched off, but it does give that 'TUFF' look.

You might be gettin something mixed up
powder coat bonds to metal because its heated up.
spray paint, even with a primer peels and chips right off over time
also, I dont think Madis would coat his bars with something that would peel off.

raw clearcoated ftw. I hate painted scooters, makes it look kinda cheap and plastic in my opinion (unless you paint only your bars black or chrome or something). clean ftw.

If you spray paint your scooter correctly it can last you a while...after you paint it you have to wait at least a good 4 hours too dry completely before putting it all together...i usually use 2 coats of primer and couple coats of paint and alot of clear coat...ive never personally powder coated anything but ive herd it lasts longer.

Spray paint is cheap and easy to do imo.

you can buy a powdercoating kit from sears hard wear i think and you just spray paint the color you want, apply the powder, and pop it in your oven

Yeah,

I clear coated my bars because paint looks cheap and chips off after a while.

I might chrome plate my bars even though it costs a LOT

Oh yeah, spray paint your bars.

Spraypaint = 5 bucks = 5 paint jobs
Powdercoat = 20 bucks = 1 paint job
