I've got a burple, a very dark candy blue, medium candy blue, Carribean blue from the G35, Monterey blue, and others.
Is this a problem for normal street use?

Nope. Only gets that hot on the track.....or if you were pushing the crap out of the car on the street. But that is practically impossible on street pads - your pads will go first, before your calipers will stay that hot lol.

Hey mike. I haven't gone through the thread so you might have already answered these questions. but What's the turn around? how long would it take to get my calipers back to me? is this a one day job? Also interested in candy lime green with metallic clearcoat with no decal. priced to 66215

Hey Mike, time to pull the trigger. What color(s) would you suggest with a red z ? I am leaning towards a brembo gold with some red in it, just to darken the bright gold brembo uses. Thoughts? Sport Wheels, but will be painting or powder coating them black with a red trim.

My gold doesn't exactly match the brembo gold, it's as close as I can get , but not as brilliant. It would work on red, ask Lou. Remind me Thursday and ill post a pic when I get home friday

Thanks, will do and I was not looking for an exact match to the brembo gold. Wanted some red or orange in it. Are there any other colors you could recommend to go with a red Z?

I read the thread and saw this link, will check it out also. Prismatic Powders

Can you powder coat some Gen3 tubes? Would want it to color match the car.

Thanks Mike, I am researching color options off the prismacolor link you posted earlier.

I am leaning now towards the Zele orange with a shade of red (pearl).

Can you do the Gen3 CAI tubes?

Mike, ok I am still looking into colors for red Z with sport 19's. I like the one above, and also wanting to switch it up to a yellow with red lettering. Something along the yellow on the european exotics. Thoughts on how this would pair up with the rest of the colors on the car and wheel.

if your gonna ask about what colors work on your car, would help to list out mods and what color your car is? perhaps interior? any accents or future plans for body work?
