Why CHQ?
We're Here to Help!
Experience, Attention to Detail.
75 Reasons to Trust CHQ with Your Caliper Restoration.
With over 75 combined years in aftermarket remanufacturing for some of the biggest names in the aftermarket Dan Mendez and Graem Elliott created Caliper HQ, a new way to provide remanufactured brake calipers to the industry with a level of quality and service not available anywhere in the aftermarket.
When CHQ started, we set out to be the best caliper remanufacturer in the automotive aftermarket. We were driven to provide a superior customer experience and level of attention that huge suppliers simply can’t support. The passion that drives us is the same passion that drives our clients, we are car people and this passion is at the core of everything we do.
In the beginning, the automotive industry was personal, it was a handshake, it was attention to detail and to the customer’s needs. As time passed an evolution took place this ideology was lost, online ordering, missing customer service and lack of quality ignore the most important element; the people. Caliper HQ remembers these days and works to bring customer service and personalized attention to each caliper and relationship we build.
CHQ specializes in vintage European caliper restoration, rebuilding each caliper to its original fit and function for some of the most scrutinizing customers in the country. While this is our passion, we can and do rebuild calipers for any vehicle make or model, import or domestic, new or old.
Not sure if your calipers can be rebuilt due to damage or corrosion? Looking for a rare caliper core, component or seal? CHQ has you covered, give us a call and Let’s get Rebuilding!
