GROUP BUY l PowderCoated Akebonos from Mike the Powdercoater

He is not a vendor here so I contacted him. He has done alot of brakes here and over on driver. These will include the Akebono lable. Here is the break down

http://www.thepowdercoater.com/

Normal Price
350 powdercoating
30 shipping
900 refundable core charge

Group buy
300 powdercoating
30 shipping
500 refundable core charge

Need 5 people, exchange or their own, 50% up front, balance and core at shipping time.

There will only be 1 core set, so 2nd person won't get theirs until 1st returns them, etc.

I apologize for not understanding how this would work. SOLISIMO can you explain this process more? Would we get back out own calipers painted? Or someone else's calipers painted? What exactly is this "core charge"? Thanks in advance.

He has one in stock right now. So lets say Im first he would ship me the ones he has Powder Coated however I like. When I get them I would send him mine.

Then he would paint them your way and send them to you and you send him urs that way their is little down time. It really doesnt matter whos they are bc they are being powder coated which eliminates the imperfections

You can count me in... Although, my Akebono's are already off the car, so no need to worry about exchanging cores for me.

Should we start a list?

1. SOLISIMO
2. 2GoRNot2G
3.
4.
5.
