Talking Powdercoated Brakes

Haven't posted any pics for awhile since car is down for motor build. Got these in from the Powder Pro the other day.

The color looks absolutely ridiculous and the pictures don't do it justice.










Last pic is a cellphone pic with flash but helps show how deep the color is.

That looks damn good. How are they supposed to hold up to the heat?

RedZ: Powdercoating holds up excellent to heat, that's why it's preferable over painting. It's a much more durable finish.

Circa: cost me 340 for all 4 calipers and brackets + rebuilds on all 4.

Pipeless: I'll have installed pics in a week or two, as soon as i get the new motor in the car and put everything back together.

Thanks for the compliments guys

Thanks for the business, glad you are happy with the color! I use a little trick or two with the candy colors to make them a mile deep like that

Should perform ALOT better for you now as well with the fresh rebuild kits installed, enjoy!
