Anybody know of a GTA powdercoater who can do our Brembos?

Homeless Man · 01-13-2016, 09:36 PM

I was looking at that but then I ended up doing it myself didn't even have to remove anything except the wheel. Used the spray attachment for G2. Color SGM I don't see how mine powder coated would've looked better came out flawless lol.

Yes I painted mine as well but after a couple summers they are getting chipped up so believe powder coating will hold up better.

Just sent away for a colour swatch from G2.

ssfox · 01-15-2016, 05:02 PM

G2 may hold up better. I just used VHT Caliper paint.

G2 works great. Powder coating is better in many ways but I went with G2 because I'd rather put that few hundred dollars to make it go fast lol. I have no regrets. G2 looks amazing and I've had it for 3 years and still shines like a candy coating.

Yup I went the VHT route as well and they look great still after a few years.I did mine in 3 steps, 2 base colour coats, brembo decals, 3 coats of clear.

I had my 20" rims done last summer gloss black and they turned out great, was very happy with them.

ssfox · 01-19-2016, 07:15 PM

How much for the rims?
Stock SS rims?
