I recently had the calipers on Kim's 2004 Cobra Mustang re coated b/c as you will see...they were in need of some TLC. Her Cobra has 4 piston Stoptech brakes and was daily driven, even in winter, for five years. Now it is a weekend fun car and is seeing autox's and track days more and more and more.

I heard of a guy named Mike Golding over at thepowdercoater dot com and looked him up. He came with a very good reputation and knew exactly what I was talking about when I called him.

Here are some pics of the before and after......

The only issue I have with the new coated calipers is that the Stoptech logo is now a decal instead of a silk screen. I talked to Mike about this and this is the way he does it...we shall see if it holds up.

They came out nice. I'd planned on using him for my Z06 calipers....
