Default Powder coat help on me saph

Hi guys, I need a bit of help

I've stripped everything from the underside of me saph cos, & I need to know exactly what I need to send off to powder coat????
Sorry to b so anal but I'm a bit clueless as never done it before!!!!
And also do I need to cover all thread holes, & where the wheel bearings go, plus do I leave the expensive bearings in on the rear arms while being powder coated?? It's having all new bushes & I know them are the only ones you don't change.

Thanks Lee

You will have to remove the bearings from the rear arms and hubs, when you take your stuff to the powder coater tell them to tape up any threads and any bearing faces
