Good shit. Wish you were closer I have a set of rims I want powder coated.........
kenny I was going to modify one of the hot side pipes in my kit, but I think it will work better if I leave it the way it is. SO last time I didn't bring it to you. When do you think I could stop by and drop it off?
kenny,
we are going to pull the calipers off tomorrow,
what color you think?
I may be switching to the black race stars at some point, so i want something that will look good with a chrome / polished or black wheel?

Honestly you can never go wrong with red. Seems unless it is a really bright color it just disappears and you can even see them.
i dunno, i'm kind of mixed on the red, looked good on the vette, but it was black,Quote:

I think red calipers look good on any color car. Blue might look OK, but not your exact color... maybe a lighter shade?
I was kind of thinking that too, with the flames and stuffQuote:

I have been very very busy these last few weeks and have gotten really bad about taking pics, how many pics of black wheels do you want to see anyway:D. Anyhow here are a few of the different or odd ball parts I've done
Horrible cell phone pic but some old MG wheels in mirror silver sparkle with black inlay hand painted and satin clear. These things were a mess when I got them and looked better than new when they were delivered.

I had a pair of these 2ft saw blades that were also a rusty mess. Someone is making a display out of them and they were done in mirror red

This is one very expensive mailbox post. One is a stock mopar crank and the other was a $2k aftermarket crank with a hairline crack. With a little ingenuity they were mated together to make a post very a custom striped and painted mailbox. I'll get a pic of the final product when they get it mounted

I wish my car would fit in your baker I would just have you powder coat it lol.
Is that grannysmith green a single stage or multiple layers? That would look killer on my buggy:cool2:.
Hey Ian it is a color that requires a clear, and yeah it is a badass color
That Green is great that would stick out !
Your out! lolQuote:

Yes it would
any blue that resembles this color?
Here are a couple I have here in stock

http://powder365.com/store/index.php...&products_id=2
i'm liking the ultramarine blue
I've got some here, not a ton so let me know what you need done and I'll let you know if I have enough.
Just some front springs off a 2011 brembo mustang gt in that color
Ive got plenty for two springs
What has to be done to brake calipers to get them coated?
Remove them from the car:) Really that is about it. Depending on how old they are should look into buying a rebuild kit which.is a new piston seal and boot. Let me know if I can help
I'm gathering stuff to take down your way (Draglites). I am buying new reman calipers and bomb can paint looks ratty. Do they need disassembled?
I can disassemble them if you don't know how to. Let me know when you are ready.
I have been slammed to say the least here are a few things I've done and managed to pics of before they went out the door. Finally some colors that are new and a little different.
Tropic red/clear, it has a nice goldish metallic to it
