Default Powder coating 4" FWI?

Might be a dumb question but here it goes...

I just got my box of goodies from pcmforless and the new 4" FWI ( old style not the new one-piece) was included. I know that powder coating is typically thicker than paint. Will the powder make it too thick to slide the silicone hoses on(no homo)? Also if powdering the pieces is fine, should I tell the guy not to powder the whole tube(inside and outside), or just have him powder the entire part?

Justy have them coat it....Its likely they cant coat the entire inside and no one does anyway....just overspray is all that gets in there.
DO whatever you want, it will be fine.

My wheels are a "dark cherry" color. I was thinking about matching them or going with red jewel.

Have them go to town on it. I would put some bolts in your maf so you don't have to tap them later.
