We can powder coat any c5, c6, c7 brake calipers any color you want and we have cores so you don’t have to put your vette on stands while waiting for your calipers to come back from us
How is the word Corvette applied? On stock calipers, it's painted on (no decal, flush with paint). Could just be the angle but it looks like a decal on the blue one.

It is a sticker which is applied to the caliper after it’s powder coated. After the sticker is applied we put a clear powder coat over it to make sure the logo never gets damaged.

Merry Christmas to you Dan, sorry we weren't able to get together in Spokane this past summer for a photo shoot. Maybe next year. To all the rest of you out there, Merry Christmas.

Jeff

I saw this watch in a store over the weekend..... Looks like it should have been included with the GSCE! Exact same colors.

It is a Bulova Precisionist Gunmetal Gray Chronograph Watch, 46mm. Model #98B229
They retail for $950, but I have seen them online in the $400 range.

Vote for your favorite C7 special edition here, I think we can run these numbers up a bit.
