Devil Brakes!

Have to share this, because they are so unusual.

So, I got a powdercoating job from a shop I do a lot of work from. They said the guy is into a devil theme, and he has a 2010 camaro. I did his wheels and tail pipe surrounds in a gloss black, and his rotors and calipers in a satin black. BUT, he wanted custom logos on his calipers. At first, he wanted his signature pentagram, with a bull's head inside of it, but when we told him it was too small, as we only had 3/4" height to work with, he provided me his own font, and we went with this.

I can do that. I've been doing so many wheels lately, its crazy. But, I'm learning to live with it, and actually have a decent rhythm going now with them. I've done 3 sets in the last week!

This is what a powdercoated rotor actually looks like. It was painted silver from the factory. Also, a slightly fancier one that I did in the past.

When painting rotors people will think of the whole rotors being painted..
