So you're charging 450 to powdercoat the stock calipers? I'm just trying to understand the price, not bash.

Wow. That seems kinda high. I had the frame, swingarm, engine, transmission and various other small parts on my Harley powdercoated for $400. He also polished the edge of the fins on my jugs and heads and then applied a clearcoat. That also included sandblasting the old factory powdercoat off of everything.
I don't mean that to sound like I'm bashing you, but man that seems like a really high price for calipers and brackets.

Not to say you did not get a good deal with your Harley parts but I would have done the same for you at about the same price maybe a bit less if we haggled. Thanks for the input.

Check out the price for torch red calipers only at Corvette Mike's or West Coast Corvette. $399 exchange.

As far as my bike, yes, I got a smokin' deal. He told me that he would never quote a price that low again if someone wanted the fins polished because of all the prep work involved- so he used my job as a learning experience, and I got a low price for some beautiful work. I love a win-win transaction! He is using my bike to generate business for his shop, and it has. I would post some pics, but I don't know how.

When it's all said and done you have what looks to me like a nice upgrade and basically new calipers.

mark does great work and you cant put a price on quality work..being in the powdercoating bussiness,the price may be a bit high but by being able to unbolt yours and bolt on his rebuilt and coated ones with brackets,not to mention no down time,it doesnt seem that bad of a price..
