I know this is way off topic..

But I am going to be selling the original Brembo calipers (front & rear), with the typical clearcoat damage. I kind of searched around on here, and eBay, and well, what the hell do you guys think they are worth? I see everywhere from $500 to $850 (in worse shame than mine sadly).

Oh and Turco, I got some pics of that wing today. Hit me up if you want to PM some over.

Bill, do you want to give them to us for refinishing? I'd actually consider a straight-up trade for my mint-condition red brembos if I could get a hand on some to paint blue...or another color...

Worse comes to worst, we can always refinish them and then still sell them...

What would it normally run to have them refinished? Cheap enough, I may just go that route, or even offer it as an option in the sale.

Or like you said, I could just sell yours? I am not in a real hurry to sell them, but I am, know what I mean..lol

Here is the shape they are in after a quick wipe down:

I bet it wouldnt be too expensive just to have them powdercoated. Probably $200. The clear on those is pretty bad, i would have to see them in person but it might be hard to repair without touching the paint. I would love to paint those copper with heavy flake and put them on my car

Oh and I don't think i will make the meet this week. There is a lot going on at the house i want to get accomplished and wednesday night sort of fall smack in the middle. Plus my car is a friggen disaster and i have almost no time to clean it. If it is local i might swing by in mikies car, should be driving by tomorrow night.
