Anyone with a Stoptech front brake kit powdercoat the rear calipers to match the front reds?

If so, where?

Thanks

phone book, check with a hot rod shop for a local source.

there are kits you can do in your oven, not recomended.

Anthony,
Did you get new caliper slide bolt dust boots? Where did you find them?

Hey Tom,

No, actually after I had them powder coated and tried to install them - the pistons were bad and I ended up using a different set. They did look great. :crazy:

I did not have any problems. Everything on your brakes are designed for high temps. Most powers are baked on in the 300-400 degree range. Talk to you powder coater and and just stay in the lower temp ranges for the minimum times.
