Brembos are another animal. From what I have been told is they need to be tore down and rebuilt to powder coat. But will definitely look more in to it.
Most powder coaters should be able to disassemble your calipers and reassemble. I know mine needed to be torn apart and rebuilt when I had them powdered.
If you're gonna paint, I think using a QUALITY two stage clear is the difference between a nice looking job and a job that looks like its been done at home. The red calupers posted above look decent, but can still tell its a garage job just from the pic.
The caliper pictured was done using rattle cans but the guy used a $15-20 can of clear.

I'm considering doing this to the 350's Brembo's. The unfinished grey metal look isn't cutting it.
This thing is like the ultimate daily driver. Problem is, I would store it and buy a beater for the winter.
What color you thinking? Im getting tired of my red calipers so I might buy Pratts 6piston Brembos and coat all my calipers a different color than red. Was thinking that copper would look good with my car, or black or a color that matches Deep Impact Blue.
Will see how it does this winter as its a SUV, lol. Knowing me I will buy a used Tahoe next winter and use that as well. TH WILL NOT be a garage queen next winter. I will use the Tahoe on days I know I have to haul shit around for work and on days its snowing. Not that I'm worried about the snow, its the other assholes on the road that I dont want sliding in to the TH
I was initially gonna go red like the R, but now you've got me thinking.......................
I just feel they stick out like a sore thumb. I prefer them to match the color of the vehicle.
When I eventually do aftermarket wheels, I'm probably going do do a concave 5 star wheel. So they calipers will really be seen then.
I hear ya, but I'm just a puss that doesnt have the heart to drive a beutiful machine like that through salt.
I think velocity blue would look awesome that color is bright and pops everywhere. The problem with Deep Impact is that it gets really dark in low light situations and they just wont stand out behind a wheel. Yellow is an option too for me...
They do stick out, but in a good way. I think they look awesome especially with that red.
Shawn in here talking about what color his springs and calipers should be... Listen to yourself man! You should be talking about shredding the tires and how good it sounds at full throttle.

Needs a CAI to improve sound at WOT. Hoping to find a used one in the next couple of weeks. If not then will purchase new.Shawn in here talking about what color his springs and calipers should be...
