Guys at the shop insist they be finished after they're installed. At this point that's the plan, though they'll probably be painted. Perhaps a clear coat too, semi-gloss is tempting for a little bling.

Thanks, I have the powder coating equipment at my house. I blasted and powder coated with the u-joints out. If you blast and coat the driveshaft with them installed you will have grease run out of the u joints and get into your powder and not good for the seals in the joints to get that hot.
If I were more anal, I would have removed the u joints after having the shaft shortened and balanced then powder coated And re installed. The whole process was a PITA But worth it IMO
