I need to get my BBK powdercoated. I want to take it somewhere that knows what they are doing since the brakes have to be disassembled! Anyone have any ideas? I want to get it done now while my car is being re-done. Any help would be appreciated thanks!

 

member OC 350GTCoupe's dad has a powdercoating shop in OC...

it's called A to Z Coatings

dont know how experienced they are with brakes...O.o

but i'd give them a shout

 

i'll give them a call...i'd just be worried to give someone brakes and hope they know how to assemble them back together in the end! my car won't be done for a few weeks but i'd like to get it out of the way. let's see if anyone else has any first-hand experiences. thanks

 

I shipped mine to The Powdercoater. He's in GA and specializes in brake calipers. He can also repaint the logos. I should have them back by next Friday.

 

^^what is the total turn around time though?

 

^^that is what i was wondering...
did you get stoptech's kurtis or did you have the stockies done?

 

Turnaround in his shop is very quick. What takes time is the UPS Ground shipping (one week each way).

I wanted to get Stoptechs but they have their heads up their @$$e$ when it comes to maintaining a sensible production schedule. They must think people want their stuff so much that they'll wait months to get it. They won't have rear 4-piston calipers until March or April. I took my business elsewhere and got some Rotora 6-piston/355mm fronts and 4-piston/355mm rears. The OEM calipers looked too weak to p-coat.

 

Hit up www.statusautodesign.com and talk to Jesse, tell him Andy@Performance sent you. Ive seen some of the calipers theyve done and they look almost O.E.

 

+1 for www.thepowdercoater.com

he does top notch work.

if you check out his website, you'll see pics of a candy apple red he did of a 14" Stoptech kit
