It's a semi garage queen and the new pads are Hawk ceramics so I'm hoping it won't be too much of a problem. Hope....

Calipers look extra nice!

Canadian steel, Cadmium plated. Yeah they'll probably rust


I'll keep a constant eye on them and if they crack or start to rust I'll try another avenue.

Glad you are happy! No problem on the shipping even though it was my highest shipping charge yet. I don't like unhappy customers. Powdercoating is not my main gig so to answer the turnaround question above, it would probably take a couple of weeks.

My gig is making cars go fast and right now my shop is flooded with cars that need my attention. If ya' need a set quick, check out forum member corvette pilot, powdercoating is his gig and the work is top notch. Of course, he may have a long waiting list, I know he used to.
