The clear powdercoat looks good. I don't think it looks thick. It's only a dusting from what I have seen in videos. I will say my NOS head light bezels next to the grill looks just a little bit brighter but one could just blame that on manufacturing differences. One mistake I or my powdercoating guy made (finger pointing) was to not clean all the buffing compound off the piece. Left a few shadows in the grill in the corners.
