best brake painting in socal?
hey everyone,
was just wondering if anyone knew of a good place to go and get brakes powerder coated down in so-cal (also if you knew the prices and locations that would be some good info to include). ALSO i was wondering if anyone had any suggestions on brake colors i could do, just looking for some advice, heres my car *grill is white but being painted black in a couple days*
my personal thoughts rihgt now are going with either bronze or some form of blue

Olympic Powdercoating in Santa Ana. They did my IS350 front brakes for about $80 + tax. They do an excellent job. We use them at work for some of our other powdercoated parts and they always provide a great finish.
If you visit their location, you can see some of the race teams that have had parts powdercoated from them.
FYI. I had mine powdercoated blue, like the F-Sport blue.

Yes. I purchased the IS350 front calipers as a BBK upgrade from the smaller IS250 ones. So I painted these with the G2 epoxy paint and I didn't like the look. So I decided on the powdercoat route and was very happy that I did.
I still have the IS250 rears and I didn't want to spend the $$ to do these. I plan on upgrading these as well to the 350 which is why I didn't do both fronts and rears at the same time.
Hope that clears it up. Maticcis PM me if you have any questions.
