ya I was thinking the same thing after i looked at some on here. These are closer to the factory lettering than most on here but I think the larger lettering will look good. I got the larger ones also.

I can only imagine calipers painted in Midnight Purple III, it would look completely insane!

Somehow I missed this before joining as a vendor. This coating is not ceramic, it is anodizing. Ceramic would contain the heat in the caliper. A heat dissipation coating would be ideal if you're doing autox/time attack and worried about heat transfer, but not really practical for a dd or drag car. For any metal to be powdercoated, it needs to be etched and can be done 1 of 2 ways, either blasting (best) or chemical etching. This is if you want the coating to last as the powder needs a coarse substrate to bite onto.

To be honest with you, I am not sure. They have been on the car since I have had it for the past 2 years lol. They get a little dusty, but a quick blast of the pressure wand at the car wash, it cleans it off.
