Default Latest Mod, Black to Blue Calipers
I was hesitant to do this but I am sooo glad I did. Thanks to Mike at THEPOWDERCOATER.com The turnaround time from door to door was less than one week and the communication with Mike was excellent. The workmanship is BEAUTIFUL!! This mod was super easy, took a total of about three hours to pull off and put back on. Bleeding was a snap by gravity bleeding. I just wish car show season was coming up!! I know the pictures are not the best but I am so excited to share I couldn't wait to take better ones!!

The Blue really looks good.... Probably the best looking calipers so far.
