Downeast Johnny Posted October 23, 2015 Report Share Posted October 23, 2015 Thanks man! Had to do something different. I had my powdercoater do that for me. He said it took an extra coat to make them look good enough for him to send them out. Needless to say, I was happy lol. It was a great idea and your guy did a first class job. I had no idea you could get that look with powder coating. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Downeast Johnny Posted January 17, 2016 Report Share Posted January 17, 2016 (edited) Test fit today! That looks ( . ) ( . ) ! Great choice of wheels, too. They really show off your brake work. :thumbsup: The powder coat has to hold up better than paint, too.

EXGM Posted January 17, 2016 Report Share Posted January 17, 2016 Test fit today! I love orange! Those look good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1BAD2K Posted January 18, 2016 Report Share Posted January 18, 2016 Thanks guys. I thought the orange would pop nice with the black paint and also be a little bit different than normal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kaze_v8 Posted January 18, 2016 Report Share Posted January 18, 2016 Are those 20's? That looks amazing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1BAD2K Posted January 18, 2016 Report Share Posted January 18, 2016 Are those 20's? That looks amazing Thanks man! They are 22x9 all around. The rear offset is different so it can have a decent lip in the back but still 9" wide so I can run the same tire all around for the awd.

ss_clone907 Posted January 19, 2016 Report Share Posted January 19, 2016 so is this conversion just for the looks or do they perform better as well? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1BAD2K Posted January 19, 2016 Report Share Posted January 19, 2016 so is this conversion just for the looks or do they perform better as well? Going from 2 piston floating caliper to a 6 piston fixed caliper, and from about a 12" rotor to a 15", you're definitely going to notice a huge difference in stopping power. The aesthetic benefit is secondary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ss_clone907 Posted January 23, 2016 Report Share Posted January 23, 2016 anyone have an estimate on how much this would cost to do on a single cab clone, paying a shop to do it since I cant do it myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
