Any white cars with their coil covers painted white?

John H

This is the first time I've heard about this mod. Is this just a straight rotor swap so that the rear rotors are closer to the size of the front Brembo rotors, or is there more involved?

Faceman

The brake upgrade is pretty straight forward and simple. There are several place that sell the kits. Some of them recommend changing out the calipers but most sites will tell you that it is not necessary to do so.

I plan to buy their kit very soon. Will update after I get it done.

Hey guys. I was successful tracking down the guy responsible for painting my stuff. I sent him an email last night and he responded this morning giving me approval to post his email address on here. His name is Robert. He asked me to send him a link to this thread so he can come on to answer any and all questions that you may have. Robert's email address is: Robmaria@bellsouth.net

This link will take you to his photobucket account to see some of his other work. Thanks guys and good luck. Please keep us update with pics and any info with doing business with Robert. I can attest to the quality of his work and his prices were very reasonable in my opinion especially considering his quality.

Faceman

Hey, take a look at Robert's photobucket page. I put link to it in previous post. He has many different samples to look it. Hope this helps.

Thanks for the research, Faceman.

I'll be writing to him today. His work looks great and i have a feeling he'll get a lot of business from the folks 'round here.

Awesome thank you! I'm thinking about Race Red or Ruby Red...Race Red will go better with my planned theme, but it's his most popular color so meh, and I just love Ruby Red lol

Faceman

Hey Robert. Thanks for getting on here and posting up some samples. I personally can attest to the quality of your work. Hopefully some of these guys and gals will try some of your stuff. There are some beautiful cars on this forum.

Looks awesome Rob! Do you have any pics of DIB with silver? Or Silver with DIB? Darn! I can't decide! Lol. Not sure if DIB/silver would be too much DIB since the strut towers are right there. Matte black with silver? Arrrrrrrr.

Can you talk about the process? Obviously we would send you our covers, but then what's turn around time, cost, etc.

Also, do we get back our actual covers, or do you get a bunch in, paint them randomly and send them back out.

Just got off the phone with Robert and ordered RR coil covers. He was a gentleman to deal with.

TripleBlack gets bling!!!!

Tom

So he sends new ones out?

TripleBlack14

Yes. He supplies the parts.

Sweet! Great choice Tom. I dont have much bling at all on mine so im thinking this might be a nice low key touch. And some reservoir caps.

It's most popular for me to sell, but very few people actually have them on their cars. I have a Kandy Brandywine Red from HOK that I could spray over a set of red to give them a ruby 'look'.

Surprisingly I don't have any pics...just the one that Faceman has. I keep new/returned covers on hand and paint those. The price includes shipping, but I will give a $30 credit if you return your covers to me in like-new condition. PM or email me for cost, as it varies depending on color and style.

As above, I can supply the set and you can return your used ones to me as long as they are in like-new condition.

Thanks for the kudos!

I'm thinking white covers with DIB accents on your Mustang, reverse of the main color and stripe scheme on the car. Same with the plenum cover. Robert doesn't do those covers, but I'll pm you with someone who does.

Tom

DarrenGT

thanks Tom. I'd be interested in some plenum options for sure.
