My before and after pictures of parts I have powder coated before I sell

First off let me say this is NOT a for sale post. If there is something you are interested in PM me and I will post in the for sale section.
For those of you that have dealt with me in the past you know that I try and provide the best quality parts available. I thought it would be fun to post some before and after pictures so that you guys know what is involved. Normally I take before pictures at the powder coater to insure that I receive all of my parts back as there are so many small pieces. This time I had 57 parts redone! Recently I decided to start having many of the parts sandblasted and powder coated. It seemed like a good idea as most items I sell are originally black. This way a customer that purchases from me can have a clean ready to install part without having the hassle of having to refinish themselves. This is the first batch of hydraulic pedal assemblies that I have had powder coated. I know originally they were bare metal but most if all I have seen have a decent amount of surface rust even here in AZ. To remedy this refinishing sounded like a good idea. Even if you can't see most of it once installed. With this batch of pedal assemblies I am also installing all new bushings in them. I figured I had them completely apart so it was as good of time as any to do this. The price won't be much higher on these than I normally sell them for. Just my actual cost of powder coat and bushings. I feel this way I can provide the best quality parts to my customers. I have sold a lot of these pedal assemblies over the past couple years and these will be the best quality yet! The other parts in the pictures are items I normally have powder coated. I think all of them look 100 times better than when I started!
