    i had mine powdercoated because i knew they would look better that way, rust is butt-ugly. i also like how they pop now, and stand out. its good at car shows and stuff. plus i think it looks good.

    Getting some good solid feed back from everone so far.

    Next questions:

    What did you spend "about" (rough guess) total in prep. work/chemicals plus the paint, primer, clear coat, or the brush on paint on kits you can buy, or powder coating?

    If you were starting from scratch with a set of used stock brakes, how much time would you say you have invested in the project when it finally gets all said and done?

    Did you feel that your free time was worth it for the end result you got?
