Before and after
was having a little bother with the brakes so while they were off the car I decided to have them refinished/powder coated in purple chrome
before(very dirty)
calipers in purple chrome
Also had coilovers redone in same color .They look more purple in person will try and get a better shot in different lighting
Also a good time to have a good clean in the wheel well area.Just need to put it all back together and get car re aligned after lowering it.
