Powdercoated? I used this guy...
http://www.thepowdercoater.com/ Charged $350 to redo all 4 of my stoptechs. He was pretty quick about it but I was in no rush either. Zeckenhausen uses this guy. I know IND does awesome work but I wasn't willing to spend the $$$ on a paint job that's going to look horrible in a year or so anyway.

Any local bodyshop can handle painting them for you. Powdercoating is tougher since any non-metallic parts need to be removed prior to coating since the baking of the powdercoat will melt the seals.

Here are some pics from the guy I used. They are powdercoated. Honestly, I think paint will look better and more uniform than powdercoat. I would have preferred he not powdercoat the crossover tube but no big deal, minor thing. Considering that powdercoat was about 1/2 the price of paint, more durable, and will get messed up from track use...I went with powdercoat.

It might be a good time to replace seals, dust boots and/or anything else that needs it. Also, if you need StopTech stickers, PM me and I can send you the sticker templates I got from StopTech (I've seen some stickers that are the wrong font). You'll still have to have vinyl cut, but at least it'll be accurate. -M |
