^^^

Well I wonder if they ever peeled or turned a fugly color? An update on them would be good. Talk about a thorough caliper paint test! How did it hold up over the past 4 years?

BTW i like the blue too. Same as my calipers.

they look good i wonder how long the paint will last before it starts to peel i was thinking about repainting mine but i think powdercoat is the way to go to make them last

You mean paint from Auto Zone did not hold up well on your calipers?

Caliper re-paint
Do you guys know where the best place is to send your calipers to get sandblasted and powder coated?
