Don't mind my inexpierience with paint and powder coating...... but will you not have issued getting the bolts and sliders and stuff because you didn't fill the holes?? Just curious because I want to do this to my calipers too.

I got my front passenger window replaced thanks to a landscaping/ lawn care service for breaking my window and yes they paid for it to be replaced.

I ran out of plugs but ill re-tap the holes before I assemble.

i like plugs but sometimes retap is better specially when the bolts dont go all the way through. having the threads that stay exsposed coated helps keep out water. retap takes longer but is so much better in the end with control over whats coated.



those look very sexy btw

Most of the time I don't use plugs and I just tap the holes after being done if lots of powder gets in there.
I love the color a lot. Thomas pics don't do it justice. I need to take pics with my camera once I'm done.

You're doing a really good job on the brembos spdracer, can't wait!

And I finally got this out, wasn't so bad except for taking out some stuffing:


Now to put the other ones in.

On a side note I ordered inner and outer tie rods and 2 starters. Will be doing my brembo swap ans new tie rods and new springs on the coilovers all at once. The starter on the daily is on its last leg it left me stranded a couple days ago and the beige one needed it too so rockauto got a $250 order today.

Also looking at a higher end powdercoating gun. Might be buying one this week or next week since everyone is asking for candy colors and I love doing this so maybe its time to upgrade.
