Darn photopoint. Had a picture of Kevin's yellow calipers before he sold it for the Roadster.
I really liked them. Nice wheels...like em. Looks like they are nicely recessed ... good for avoiding scratches. Will look for the pic ...

I should have more info on the BigReds next week, will be buying em soon after
I have a company locally in Orlando that will powder coat em for me.
Its only a case of spraying the special paint and then baking in an over at 400 I think...that kind of temp shouldnt bother the calipers too much for the short amount of time they'll be in the oven.
As for the BigReds they will be coming from ECS tuning, at a better price than other big brake kits..

might wait till I get the Stoptechs, then ill strip them, get them sand blasted the apply my super powder on them.... when im done these suckars are gonna look like lemon wedges...hey can I ask how much your local guy charges? The reason why I asked is that if I ended up doing mine for i could maybe do yours for a bottle of booze or something if you were intersted...cause If got a few million pounds of powder sitting around and wouldnt mind doing alittle painting.. email if you are interested...
