I finally got to painting my calipers this weekend. I had the common problem of the clear coat coming away from the caliper so they looked pink. Instead of just putting a new clear coat on I decided to go with a different color. I picked silver with a carbon fiber brembo decal. I only had enough time to do the drivers side front though. If anyone wants me to I’ll do a little write up and take some before, during and after pictures tonight when I do the other three I will. Let me know what you think.

 

Good job , mm but yellow would look more aggressive

 

nice nice, I might have opted to removed the brembo decal all together to go with the alcon look but I like them non-the less. Nice job man

edit: I bet different rims would show them off better too

 

looks cool. would probably look better with black or dark colored wheels. you should paint your stockers!

 

I was thinking about it but I'll probably just buy new wheels. That is further down the line though as my wife gets crazy when I talk about doing anything to the car.

 

awesome! write-up pleeeeeeeaaaaaaazzzzz

 

I considered a bunch of different colors. Yellow was one that was high on the list but it wasn't all that available in a spray paint. Silver was readily available and I think it has a classic look.

 

I'll do that tonight. Though it will probably be pretty short. There's not much to it, just time consuming.

 

I like the red but those look niice too.

 

looks good

 

Wow, I like that. Make the car less racey. Nice job.

 

GoBot, did you remove the brake line and paint them off of the car? I have seen them done both ways

 

No I just made sure I covered everything really well with newspaper.

 

Nice I done mine in black though and its hot i wouldnt do silver on silver car

 

nice nice....

Forgot the alcon look =-p
