That's exactly what I'm thinking

Brianskeet · 03-28-2012, 10:09 PM

Mike, rather than the Brembo on the caliper, can you put just a black SS centered on my redjewel caliper? Has anybody done this already?

mike@thepowdercoater.com · 03-29-2012, 11:01 AM

noone has done that. Get me a jpg of the ss you want and I can do it.

I have not yet done white calipers for a Camaro.

I have done pearl white calipers for a pearl white 370Z

*Mindz* · 03-29-2012, 12:02 PM

Mike, have you done any vibrant amber colors like SOM?

mike@thepowdercoater.com · 03-29-2012, 02:34 PM

I dont know what SOM is. Any pics?

Sunset Orange Metallic. It's on the Vette's and previous gen Camaro's. Some Avalanche models too.
It's my favorite Orange color. If the 5th Gen was avail. in this color I would have had a hard time deciding between ABM, SW and SOM.

*Mindz* · 03-29-2012, 03:41 PM

The pictures of the vette look red, and are better shown on the trans-am. Sunset Orange Metallic (not to be confused with sunburst orange metallic) is a burnt orange almost with a strong gold tinge. The Imperial Blue of my body color would really be set off with this dark, yet rich amber/orange. =)

71, WA 633H paint code.

RMK1201 · 03-29-2012, 03:48 PM

i think im gonna lean towards white, different and will still stand out/match

fastfreddie · 03-29-2012, 07:47 PM

Looks like there's 5 or so on the list so I would like to get my name on there. Is it about 2 weeks per person?

I will probably go with IOM and White or Black lettering, but the idea of white on SW car sounds interesting. I just wonder how hard it would be to keep white clean.

Thanks.

I will add you. Wait time depends on how long it takes people to get them back to me. I've got 5 sets, but a couple have been out for almost two months now.

As for SOM, its just semantics. We call it DSOM in the corvette world, for Daytona Sunset Orange. I have a match for that!

Its just like the car paint (and like the IOM powder) in that it changes in different lighting conditions. This pic is the same bottle, in different lighting and background conditions

Did you happen to take any pics of the un-installed calipers before sending them out? I'm hopefully optimistic...haha.

ssmike · 03-30-2012, 08:33 PM

Fianlly got my wheels on and the car back on the road! The calipers look awesome behind the F14's!

Kevinshawnm · 03-31-2012, 05:22 PM

Any updates on the list?

mike@thepowdercoater.com · 04-02-2012, 07:02 PM

Haven't gotten any back in a few weeks. A couple pairs have been out for two months plus, so no update.

ssmike is the last person I shipped to and his will probably be back soonest.

Brianskeet · 04-03-2012, 03:33 PM

Lovin the Red Jewel! can't wait to get mine done. A few of the little bits for my brake upgrade came today. Pedders stainless brake lines. They are sharp looking pieces and should make a great addition. These lines, Racing Brake Rotors and pads, and my Powder coated calipers from Mike will complete the package. That and some Motul 600 fluid. Now it is time to get patient and wait till I come up on the list. I do still have to find the perfect black SS for Mike to put in the center of my calipers.

mike@thepowdercoater.com · 04-05-2012, 07:30 AM

I'm sorry there is no movement and the list is getting longer.

In the last five weeks, all I have received back is one pair of rear calipers. Where the fronts are, noone knows.

Being patient and waiting on quality is far better to my mind than getting in a rush and then not being happy with the outcome.

Rallyman6 · 04-05-2012, 01:11 PM

It's been almost two years and my calipers still look awesome

mike@thepowdercoater.com · 04-06-2012, 09:01 AM

Got one set in, should hopefully have two more next week.

Getting closer> I will do some searching for the perfect SS to put on my calipers.
