The only real down side to powder coating is if you ever decide to change something or add something it takes quite a bit to get it off so you can weld to the frame. If its done right it will require grinding it off to get to the bare metal. After that its hard to touch up and make look nice if its in an area where it will be seen. Powder coat does no blend or feather very well.

Other than that you cant beat the protection it offers. Brakefluid will tarnish it but not make it wrinkle up and fall off like paint...if you happen to spill some or break a line.

Just my thoughts.
