Has anyone heard of Rctuningshop.com they seem to sell powder coated akebono calipers just wondering if they do good work. Any helps appreciated

 

Probably should’ve added a link,


Akebono Infiniti Calipers G37 M37 Q50 Q60 FX QX Nissan 370Z Maxima Front Rear - RC Tuning Shop

 

Looks like their IG is djrabbi. 11k followers, pretty good. Hit them up but I haven't heard of them. Another company is Five6 Deuce Customs. Although, sad to say, his wife just passed away so his services are delayed.

FYI I always try and pay stuff with PayPal for buyer protection when buying from individuals or smaller "shops" just in case something happens.

I plan on getting my Akebono's powder coated by a local shop and then rebuilding them with new guts since I do have 135k miles.

 

This is probably common sense but I'm just going to add it here since I messed up. Put the bolts back in before getting everything powder coated. The shop I took it to was pretty highly recommended but this was the first time I got anything like this done. When I got my calipers back they looked great but the bolts would not thread in. I don't know if is common sense or not for powder coating things, but they never mentioned it to me when I dropped them off and never mentioned what to do about the powder that got down in the holes. I ended up destroying one of the bolts and having to fab my own replacement, and had other issues where I had to cut new threads into the hole as well. Overall is was a months long ordeal of me trying to figure out how to get my calipers back together without destroying it.

 

Concept Z offers it also, and the logos are silk screened on, instead of a decal like the one in the OP.

I've never used either, so hopefully someone can chime in about any they've used. Would love to get this done sometime soon as well.
