    Well I posted this on the other board already but for those of you that don't go there here is what I'm doing to my brakes. The candy blue powder coating was done by Pegasus Powder Coating, and the ceramic coating on the rotors was done by Landshark Coatings. The ceramic will wear off where the pads ride but the rest of the rotor will maintain its semi-chrome appearence. This first pic is what it started like.
