Ok guys so here is the deal. I'm picking up a set of the OEM gold Brembo's (4 way) and i needed some subjections. I have the Volk TE Time Attacks on my SB. Should i A) powder-coat the calipers RED to give it a unique look, or should i B) Keep it clean and stay with the bronze and stop trying to be a ricer? lol. My only concern with the powder coating is that i won't be able to sell it.

B) ----> like this http://www.thepowdercoater.com/galle...album=2&pos=30

P.S: does anyone know a good place i can get the calipers powder coated? I want them done right if i plan to powder coat them.

A member has that pic on his FS add. weiiiiiiiiiiiird. But $400 is a great deal. Do they strip everything and then powercoat?

i don't believe red paint would look ricey on single piece calipers. Maybe on stock calipers. Red also seems to only color to go with when having the time attacks. The reason i turned down a previous offer on cheap time attacks, all they do is clash with my bronze brembos and burnt orange seats.

Yes, a professional powdercoat places goes though what you would call "sandblasting".

I don't really think its rice if your going to have time attacks on a SB. Go for it

this is no longer "unique" in any way/shape/form. IMO, the red caliper look is played out. leave them gold.

keep them gold!

Even though the red will look good, eveyone has red calipers. I agree, you should keep them gold. Pay around with photoshop a little bit. See if you can find another color that will go well with the Time Attacks.

I think the gold is a better look, unique because everyone is rocking red on their cars. There is just something about the gold to me that stands out more.

What color is your car??? I have a black G, with red accessories, so in my case I'll go with RED. However I think Gold only looks good on white, blue, and silver.

i'm thinking of painting my black and retaining the red lettering. i don't think there is nothing "rice" about that..... they are actual brembos..... I think rice is painting your oem honda 1/2 piston brakes bright red

What's ricey about painting your calipers to your personal liking? Since when does color preference classify you as rice? It's what keeps us unique!

I've always liked the gold/bronze brembos the bes.

whoever thinks that this is rice should seriously slap themselves in the face because hes just matching his calipers to his time attacks..so i say do the powdercoating

i'm leaning towards powdercoating them. i was really kidding with the rice comment and those who think is "rice" should look on the brembo website. all their kits come in red.....so i guess brembo is rice?

I personally hate the Gold, P/c em red....its what I'd do if I could find a set of Brembo's for a less-ridiculous price.
