Default Pics/powder coated spindles for c5 break upgrade

Well, I thought give you a few pics of what the spindles look like after I had a friend powder coat them black. You can never have enough bling. Thats of course quoted by many.

Just the beginning of the c5 brake upgrade.

Your undercarriage is looking great. The powdercoating really makes a difference that surface rust looks so bad you got it standing tall now.

I just painted mine along with the rear end using E.R.P. paint from Eastwood.
Very easy product to apply with a foam brush.

I plan on doing the same on my rear as well. Maybe I should clarify that; the cars rear.

Ditto.

Makes the spindles look 100x better! I do however like the flat-black look on the spindles better than glossy. Sweet car dude, looks super clean!

Looks very good

I was thinking about doing mine with Por-15, but now you having me thinking about powder coat.

You should have done the hubs while you were at it.

Looks awesome, Brian...

I've been planning the powdercoat route for my spindles when my set of "Bob Brackets" get here...

With most of the newer open design wheels these days, it at least hides the rusted look. I just wish I had the funds to get Baer Rotors. But that will have to wait. For now I will be using my fathers rotors off his 04 C5.

It should hold up nice and popping the ball joints loose wasn't to bad as long as you have a couple pullers.
