Hey Guys
have you ever thought of making your own brake caliper like SSBC brakes but saying either sunfire or cavalier on the caliper because I was thinking about designing my own front and rear brake calipers saying sunfire on it and you guys probley thinking im stupid of doing this but I thought it would be kewl to do it.

give BEAR or SSBC a call I'm sure they'd be willing to do it for you for a little bit extra.
Or you could paint the calipers, then use a stencil to put sunfire on them.

Hey I wasn't ripping on your idea I was correcting how IamRascal spelled Baer brakes in case you searched for them.

hey Sylvain aka mcmoney are you still around if so please repost on this I really would like more information about this caliper setup

just remember that this is what stops your car. if you dont have experience in designing a VERY critical part in your car, dont bother. its not as easy as just cnc'ing some metal and calling it a day.

Darn, I just used a dremal and grinded out HDE on the sides, and painted over. Came out pretty.
why not just get a plate made, or welded to the outside of the caliper, but before its welded, take it to a place and get it engraved....
then paint the color after the plate is welded and smoothed down....
also, mcmoney is a fabrication pimp/genious.... like josh roberts, and a few others, you can put em in a forrest with a v- whatever engine, some wheels and tires and get a brand new car made... from scratch.
SSBC will do it. If you search the gallery you'll find a Phoenix Gold '03 sunfire with SSBC Force 10 brakes with Phoenix Gold's logo engraved instead of SSBC's. It probably costs a pretty penny though.
