Didn’t trust the local coaters with disassembly and rebuild of the thing that stops my car haha. I followed Velocity on Instagram, he had a sale, and had done numerous sets of Brembos. So felt confident sending them my calipers.
Shipping wasn’t terrible. Worth the peace of mind.
what did you pay if you don't mind me asking? They rebuilt your OEM Brembos? Did you supply the parts or did they source everything? Thanks.
That’s correct. New seals, freshly coated, and sent back. They do promotional sales all the time. I’d just hit them up for a quote. I don’t recall exactly what I paid. I did a deposit of a couple hundred and don’t recall what the final payment was.
I'd Cerakote before I'd powdercoat. That is if you can find anyone doing Cerakote these days who has time. All the firearms people have bought up the production capacity for this. The British Army is having every single firearm in their current inventory Cerakoted. It's that good and it's that heat resistant. Not sure about powdercoating, lots of internet tales of melted powdercoating on brake calipers.

Only seen horror come to life when it wasn’t cured properly, cheap media etc, more than likely won’t be seeing enough track time to get too hot, but figured I’d just buy a set to be sent out.
The issue is the cost. Most coaters don’t wanna pony up the initial cost of buying up our spendy calipers as cores.
I sent mine to Velocity Powdercoating in California while the wife and I were on vaca in Maui. They were on my porch when we got back and have been driving on them for 6+ months without any issues.
Came out great too.
VS Forged wheels. best bang for buck forged wheels! Good to see someone else with em.
