#21
Ok, I'm a littel confused so bear with me. I'd like to get a full set powder coated in NBM with the "Camaro" decal. Unfortunately my car is a daily driver. Is there a way you could do the work on some calipers you already have, then I send you my old ones as cores after I install the ones you send me? And if so, what kind of price range am I looking at. Sorry to be so dense, just trying to make sense of it all.

Ok, here's some Fbody stuff from the last couple days. was busy with alot of Ducati parts also.
Here is a BMR HVAC delete plate I did in my NBM match
Camaro spindles. These were in really really rusty shape when I got them. Got all the rust off, used a primer powder to smooth them, then two coats of mirror red. You can hardly tell they are cast metal anymore they are so smooth in most places, pretty cool.

Sean,
This is the finish I want. I also want the silver Camaro stickers on the front calipers. I am assuming the $185 is the cost to refinish all four calipers and brackets. Am I correct? Do you have these stickers in stock? How quick can I get these?
I have a local powder coater than can do these for a bit less, but I am not sure if they do the clear. I dont even know if the clear is optional or essential. Whats the story on the clear. If i ask them to clear the parts, it may be more feasable for me to have you do it. Does the clear better resist brake fluid?

Yours are all done in the blue, the red decals you want are arriving by Tuesday I hope. I have two sets coming, one in regular red and one in cardinal red so I can see which is more the red you described wanting. I can post pics of the blue but its not too exciting,they are still in pieces lol.

LOL at Meent, yes those are yours. The replacement decal got here last nite so I can finish up that one and get them shipped
WRD1972--Ask them if they charge for the install of decals and the clear. I don't charge more for any of that. The clear is necessary to hold those decals on so they don't come off and it adds some nice depth over everything also. Yes you will get some added protection having multiple coats of powder on there as well between the color and clear. The clear has similar heat, impact, and chemical resistance to the colors. Like anything, you'd want to avoid bathing them in brake fluid as that stuff is about the most corrosive automotive fluid around as we all know. It wouldn remove the powder but it could cause a colored powder to change color or lose its reflectivness if the brake fluid sat on it for a long enough time. With clears I'm not sure what could happen if soaked in brake fluid for awhile. Maybe could yellow a bit.
I have lots of these in service for quite a while now, zero problems reported. No color changing, no chipping, nothing.

If I paypal you now. When would I have the finished calipers delivered to my door. I have already removed my existing parts so I really need them ASAP.
Do you have the silver Camaro stickers on hand. I have some here which I will provide with the cores.
Please advise along with your Paypal.
