Default First powercoated calipers have arrived: photos

The first two sets came today. Here are some pre-installation photos. The red will go on my car tomorrow, the silver on Reedz's.











We'll post pictures of the installation tomorrow.

Hate to say it, but it does not look much better than caliper paint.

At least it will be more durable (sp?)...

Only if the were sanded smooth first....

I'll probably still place an order though.

The red ones look exactly like mine...just not powder coated. I used high temp paint then finished them off with high temp clear coat. It's been a while...and I still have the wet shiny look to mine...and I only spent two days painting them...ehehhehe...and $8 on the paint stuff.
