Painted Brembo's White
finally decided i was tried of getting asked why my brembos always looked faded and s****y so i decided to take advantage of a free day and paint them. let me start by saying dont judge me on my stock ride height and rims theyll be gone soon haha
1) removed rims and went to work with some degreaser and a brush
2) then its time to bust out the sand paper i used 400 wet/dry. couple dry sands then a finishing wet sand, washing the caliper in between each
3) to allow the area to dry fully i would start on the next rim
4) a very light coat of duple color engine enamel, once dry look for imperfection and sand out
5) a few more coats, occasionally a light sand here and there to ensure a smooth finish
6) then allow to drive forEVER... let one dry for like 2 hours, placed brembo sticker on and it peeled the paint right up
7) once fuly dry place brembo sticker on, ordered mine from ebay
8) time to clear, clear until youre happy with the finish
i no im siting 4x4
sorry for the poor quality iphone pics

so far they are holding up very nicely, and ive tried to heat up the brakes with some hard breaking but no fading so far... as far as turn around time i had it done in one full day and allowed to dry over night then wheels back on the next morning... massive rain storm here last couple days so the brakes are uber dirty now, but washes right off
