[QUOTE="95PGTTech, post: 272174, member: 9525"] The person who said they should have been powdercoated was NOT me. A proper powdercoating job would have necessitated entire disassembly of the caliper - piston return seal and all - and is far over the head of your average car enthusiast. Even not removing the brake line, it doesn't even look like you pulled the second one off the car. You mind as well have jacked the car up and tried to spray the caliper between the spokes of the wheel as you rotated it. Real car guys (girls) look at A LOT of things you apparently overlook - it's ALL in the details. I'm glad you enjoyed the project, and I'm glad you got a bad reception for it so at least you won't post work like this again and advertise the shortcomings of this method. Again, sorry if I'm coming across as an asshole, which I am to some degree, but I am trying to help weed out all of the ghetto rigging. - Julia [/QUOTE]
