Trim the edges off as marked by red line and X Then sand off the Acura decal..paint and apply to you calipers using Permatex (Black I think). I forget which one I got will let you all know when I get home later.

Hey guys, I bought a set of used F sport brakes and I am looking at having them powder coated. The powder coating place wants me to disassemble them. The front calipers have some very large hex key plugs. Do these have to be removed to disassemble the calipers and how to I remove them. I have never seen a hex as large as these.
Also, any recommendations on color? My GS is Dark Mica Gray with GS-F wheels.... It looks like this but it is just a base GS350: https://d2uuio0afkvff4.cloudfront.ne...ray-Mica_1.jpg
I can choose any color from here: https://www.prismaticpowders.com/sho...coating-colors
They want $300 for all 4 calipers in a custom color from that catalog or they will do a basic color like black for $200.
I was leaning towards the orange but I don't want to have a poseur GS-F

There are plenty of DIY's on it, you don't even have to take the calipers off. Some kits you can brush it on, you can decant a spray to be able to brush it on too. Its crazy to spend that kind of money unless it is a super pro job on a really high end car.
