Powder Coating Calipers

Jayshankar · 05-05-2013, 07:14 PM

I was thinking about Powder coating my brake calipers for my black cherry 370z, any suggestions on what color would look nice? I was thinking about Gold, something that would pop. What you guys think?

raymondo510 · 05-05-2013, 07:38 PM

Gold would be cool

gtabaz · 05-06-2013, 12:08 AM

Oh nice burnt orange and hyper purple sounds really sick, yep definitely a color that pops and makes it look like the Nissan brakes are their.

I would go for classy on a black cherry and go color matched.

gold would be off since the car isn't black, it's black cherry

Yea I was thinking of the brembos when he said Gold, but at the same time Depointfive0 made a good point, maybe go with color matched, it would be more subtle

Jayshankar · 05-07-2013, 08:43 PM

That's true too, Black Cherry would look subtle. Just trying to make little change before summer time

great ideas guys. Thanks for your inputs.

haha that's a little too much now. I'll probably stick to the original black. Maybe black cherry in the near future

Mike, how much do you charge and what's the turn around time to do the calipers?

/Angelo350Z/ · 05-09-2013, 01:33 AM

Yellow or gold
