      Caliper Finishes?

      Ok, so I'm cleaning up my Rear LS1 PBR Calipers and brackets I got from Ebay. I scrubbed the suckers pretty clean.

      I need some suggestions:

      1) For the finish, should I polish, paint, plate or powdercoat? Is one much more advantageous than the other's?



      2) For at least 2 of those options, I'm guessing I'd have to dissassemble.
      Any instructions out there for how to disassmble the reservoirs? I figure it's not complicated... Do I just pull the cups right out of the reservoir, or?

      My Baer calipers are going to need some cleanup before install as well and I was wondering the same things!

      Paint

      I heard the Dupli-color caliper paints work good, or you can tear them down and have them powder coated, I think I'm just going to paint mine, I have C5 calipers that someone painted yellow, I think a Semi-black or red might look good, Check them out most parts places will have the paint or Eastwood, I saw something in there today, hope that helps, Steve
