Hey Mike,

I want to get my calipers powder coated in red with a slight metallic flake, like the second set down on your 1st post, with the same Akebono logo. Perhaps a little darker, like a candy apple red.

My Z is my 2nd car so I can have the car on jack stands for a little while. Removing and replacing the breaks, however, is a little beyond my comfort level. I suppose I could take it to a shop but then I would have to store the car there until the breaks come back.

Should I just try one of the G2 brake caliper paint kits? If so, is there a way to get a logo on the calipers? If I try that and don’t like it, will it then be more difficult to powered coat them?

Thanks for your help Mike.

David
