What goes into
a KK build.

← Drag / scroll the strip →

We handle everything so you don't have to.

01 Before — raw stripped backing plate

Stripped & Blasted

Stripped to bare metal and media blasted clean — the only way to start a build right.

02 During — prepped and masked

Masked & Painted

Precision masked, then shot in rust-proof primer and heavy-duty paint — individually, so every surface is covered.

03 After — finished and painted

Assembled & Shipped

Bearings pressed in, brakes assembled — fully built and ready to bolt on the day it lands at your door.

Zero Downtime

Your car never
sits still.
