POLL - Powder coat whole rear brake or just the caliper... - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

We dropped off the brakes to get powder coat and not sure if we should do the whole rear brake or just the caliper section. The bracket was done in silver prior.

I do not want to stay silver, so option is flat black or full wet black with blue sparkle.

Here is what the basic look of the powder coat looks like except the sparkles are not as much and in blue.

Here is the rear brake. Should we do the WHOLE item or make the bracket in flat black...

Agreed, but black is black... Granted I am considering flat. I just afraid flat looks dirty vs the shinny black caliper..

I just voted to keep um shiney

The flat black will not stand out, it'll look like you only painted part of the caliper

Indpowr · 10-09-2010, 11:36 AM

We have all painted pulling away for the lead...LOL

Think about flat/satin black wheels and how they look when dirty. Sparkles or
not they'll look the same. I think the blue sparkles in the black will set it off more and the flat black bracket will just disappear.
