I had mine powdercoated, Only bad think is you have to take them completely apart. on the upside, You get to rebuild them.

main reason for the lime green is that i want the calipers to be bright cuz im lookin for a mesh concave one piece wheel design and want the calipers to pop you know. and im thinkin the matching ring on the wheels will help bring em out.

I went with red on black

I have a Tarmac Black MR, so I thought painting the calipers Black with the red Brembo decal would look sick. I am really happy how it turned out.

I documented it here, http://mw3motorsports.com/2009/09/pa...embo-calipers/

Here is a rolling shot

What % of gloss did you use to powder coat your SE BBS? They look sick!

Are those the Enkei RPF1's? What size and what offset are they? They look sick in your ride!

Hey guys,

I'll be painting my calipers soon and I'm thinking of going gold. I have a white Evolution, stock wheels. Not painting the wheels, at least not for a long time and if I do it would be professionally powdercoated black. Let me know what you guys think of this combo before I purchase the paint. If you don't think gold would be legit, propose a better color.

Thanks!

I'll post here when finished
