Had my rotors and calipers powder coated

[big-n-italian]

I hope nobody minds, but I would like to thank Ron, of R & J Distributing for the very nice job he did on my rotors and calipers. Very nice finish, and nice turnaround time. THANKS RON! Who do I send a pic to for everyone to see?

I have (4) pictures available, but do not have a web server at my disposal. Can someone post them for me?

FYI - For $600, Ron sent me two shipping labels. One label was for the rotors box, the other for the calipers box. All (8) pieces were dismantled to remove the seals, then powder coated, re-assembled, and returned. The $600 included everything, including shipping. Very pleased.

Sorry - the (4) CALIPERS were dismantled - of course not the rotors. You know what I mean.

yes, we take all of them apart and replace full internal seal and rings...since a lots of you were asking about the yellow calipers...and here are some pictures of the yellow setup for G2 cars...they def make your car stand out from others....

Why would someone powdercoat rotors? Is this car a show car?

Hi john - no, not a show car. Just well maintained, and i personally thought the red rotors would compliment the red calipers nicely. I simply didnt want to look at a dull color, or worse yet rust on my rotors through my wheels. Car is not tracked, just my occasional pleasure driver/poser. (29,000 miles of pleasure so far).

As far as the $600, I thought it was a pretty good deal. Consider for a moment the shipping costs involved of the two VERY HEAVY boxes, the cleaning and prepping for paint of the calipers and rotors, the dissasembly of the calipers, powder coating of everything, reassembly of the calipers, and the return shipping. All included in the $600. Still seems reasonable to me.

for $600, that's totally reasonable price, the rotor and caliper both packages weights about 100lbs, yes they look small, but try to lift them up all in one box...the shipping alone will cost over $100, the all new seal and rings will cost over $150, then all the labor of doing the stuff, try to take one of those rear caliper apart, then you will know how long it's gonna take to apart and back together on each one and we have done so many of them now...so if you never done one, don't even try, if you break the inner c-clip, then your DONE, prob gotta buy a whole new caliper....

Prices are still high considering the seals and shipping etc
