I'm interested in knowing as well, but I have a question for you. You say you got a predrilled Vortex. Where did you order a predrilled one from? I ordered a Vortex last night but I don't think it was predrilled.
ETA: Haha, thanks for answering in my thread dude! |

I just picked up one of these Birchwood Casey Super Black pens. Got the flat finish one.

I then bead blasted the remaing Parkering off. I installed the brake and pinned it ligthly filed the pin down to the brake surface and then cold blue the brake. The color ended up being more black the blue I thing because of the rough surface fron blasting it. It is not a perfect match to the Park but it looks fine IMHO. Hope this helps.
