once again, sorry about the lettering, I should have just done stickers on top instead of stencilling and clearcoat. The white paint isn't cooperative when stencilling. We are fixing this though.

Mike,
send you an email through your Sales email earlier today. I sent an attachment with a color sheet to see if you had the specific Orange I am looking for and wanted to get things rolling.

Thanks again.

Robert, I overnited stickers to you.

Wow! You're on top of this thread! It would have to be an exchange.

Rusty · 12-12-2012, 04:02 PM

Mike, how you looking right after Christmas? I'm going to send you mine.

Mike · 05-08-2013, 08:06 PM

Brembo Gold, or as close as it can be, now available.

The top photo is natural sunlight and the bottom is the same caliper with a flash indoors next to a real brembo. There is no way to get the larger flake of the factory brembo, but my solution is really close and if they weren't side by side, you wouldn't know the difference.

and next to a real brembo

Its not 100%, but if you didn't have them side by side, I don't think you would know and its a pretty color all on its own anyways.

I'm not flying the 24-1st, but we will probably be going out of town on a mini vacation for a few of those days.

Reaper42 · 12-26-2012, 04:01 PM

How well do these hold up under heavy track conditions?

Mike · 12-26-2012, 06:22 PM

I would recommend against powdercoating them for heavy track use. Some cars do fine, but ours just get the brakes way too hot. They will discolor. THe only color that holds up on the track is satin black, because thats what they would eventually become anyway
