Refurbished Alloys and Painted Callipers
Just thought I'd share some pics of my freshly powder-coated/refurbished alloys and painted callipers on my year 2000 Boxster 2.7.
The accentuated shadow effect on the alloys is got by silver on black spraying. I love 'em: they give the car a real modern look. The callipers were originally black and I used Halfords red enamel calliper paint (brush-on). Decals from ebay and a VHT clear-coat spray over the decals only. Also replaced the rusty wheel bolts with new ones. http://986forum.com/forums/uploads01...1370617702.jpg http://986forum.com/forums/uploads01...1370617782.jpg http://986forum.com/forums/uploads01...1370617853.jpg http://986forum.com/forums/uploads01...1370617910.jpg http://986forum.com/forums/uploads01...1370617955.jpg |
Nice job!!
|
fantastic job. looks great.
|
Looks good on that color, how much did the powder coat cost?
|
Thanks juicepro - well on this side of the pond the powder-coating cost 400 Euro ($530). Like most things, I'm sure it's cheaper in the States!
|
quality always pays in the end - beautiful!
|
Wow, nice!
I really like it, especially the wheels. :) |

Great job.
I recently did the same with my wheels and calipers but chose yellow. Turned out amazingly good ! I used Duplicolor caliper paint kit and plastidip paint for my rims. cheers |
