New AP Racing Electroless Nickel caliper finish: Incredibly durable / looks stunning!
I am pleased to announce an exciting new development for our AP Racing by Essex Radi-CAL Competition Brake Kits: The new Electroless Nickel Plated (ENP) caliper finish! In the past, AP Racing has reserved their ENP finish exclusively for professional race teams. We are thrilled to now offer it to our club race, time trial, and HPDE customers. The primary performance advantage of ENP is extreme durability. Electroless Nickel Plating is incredibly hard with exceptionally low porosity. It is perfect for components exposed to harsh chemicals such a brake fluid. It can sustain years of abuse with very little change in appearance, while also being remarkably easy to clean. Last but not least, ENP provides a stunning yet neutral, liquid-metal appearance that blends well with just about any vehicle color scheme. Our new ENP finish is now optional on all AP Racing by Essex Radi-CAL Competition Brake Kits at only +$200 per kit vs. our standard anodized finish! (+$100 more per caliper)
You can see our complete brake menu for the e9x M3 here: https://www.essexparts.com/my-vehicl...M3/E90%20Sedan On to the visuals... Our first client car to receive them was a McLaren 620R...some on-car photos for reference. These calipers are truly stunning in-person! The 620R isn't too shabby either...pulls pretty good under boost. Last edited by jritt@essex; 11-03-2022 at 01:11 PM.. |

Would it be safe to have them ceramic coated for ease of cleaning and to hopefully better preserve their appearance?

I will double check with AP Racing, but I can't imagine any problems with doing so. We used a typical automotive polish to wipe the fingerprints off the ones we used for the photoshoot with no ill effects.
