Brembo Caliper Refurbishment.
Hey all.
Over the winter im looking at getting my Brembo's refurbished. I will strip them down and even get them glass blasted, all i want is someone to repaint them in the correct shade of gold and fit the Brembo stickers, i can do the rest. So who do you recommend to carry out the work? Many thanks. |
I need a set doing too :)
|
Godspeed :-) will be slightly more expensive than other places, but well worth it.
|
Ian will undertake the whole refurbishment, you'd have to ask him if he will do just a repaint.
TBH, anyone can spray them and the stickers come off ebay....... |
getting the right shade of gold is tricky tho i think.
|
You guys thought bout hydro dipping as I've seen some n carbon done somewhere and it certainly looked different
|
would hydro dipping them not come off with the heat just asking
|
Hydrotek does them, so probably not.
If refurbing all calipers, how is the shade of gold going to matter? Or just have them red......;) |
i just remember a thread trying to nail the brembo shade of gold. one guy bought a pot of humbrol model aircraft paint and reckoned it was pretty close iirc

Hi
We could do them for you , but the powder coat gold we have is slightly lighter than the original colour , you may struggle to match them perfectly. As I say we powder coat them now , as its harder wearing than paint , painted calipers can chip quite easily , if you wanted us to powder coat them , if you strip them , and bead blast them , we would mask the area's that cannot be coated , and powder coat them , clear coat them , and even fit new Brembo logo's if you wish for £25 each , plus P&P back to you The calipers will be this colour Attachment 39833 Cheers Ian 01656 723060 |
Hi Ian
Roughly How much would it be for the full works a complete strip down, helicoil, blast , powder coat this colour and rebuild with new parts. fronts rears As I have a complete set as spares but they are very bubbly with the ally rot Many Regards |
Hi
We can do all 4 calipers , strip , bead blast , powder coat , apply new logo's , helicoil all the thread , including the bleed nipples for £475 , seals if needed would be £100 for front and rears , as long as the outer boots are not split , we could chemically clean them and reuse them , the only extra would be if there was any corrosion around the lugs , and was bad enough to need building back up with alloy welding , and machining back , we don't use filler as some others do on the lugs Hope this helps Cheers Ian |

My Spec C Type RA has just come over from Japan but the calipers have a few chips and are showing there age now. https://farm4.staticflickr.com/3702/...2eb172b2_b.jpg20150709_152240 by Scott Raven, on Flickr |
I've had dealings with Ian since my car was three years old...it's now nearly 18!
