Hate to burst your bubble, but the first time you do a hardstop, that sticker is going to either burst into flames, or just fall off. You should of just painted the brembo logo on with a stencil. Looks good though!

We'll see. The sticker does have 4 coats of clear over it so maybe it will hold up for a while.

My question is, did you put the decal and then clear over it? I think that would help it not come off. Just wondering.

Really? What paint do they spec?

My experience: had Porsche Big Reds on my M3 track rat...powder coated them twice...the high temp cure stuff, too. No problems...of course I DO NOT know if the Evo brake alloy and the P-car brake alloy is the same. I also DO NOT know if the low temp cure powder coat would work/hold up over time. I would think that the low temp cure stuff would be safe to do, as that is cured at a temp lower than what the calipers see under hard braking conditions.

i didnt ask...i just asked if i should get them repowdercoated and they said that its better to just get them sanded down and repainted. doesnt really make much sense to me but thats what the guy told me...
maybe he was blowing smoke...idk
