my stickers are holding up fine they are off ebay and are hi temp. they are also under 3 coats of clear

 

ill be making mine blue, with white lettering... just got my decals in the mail

 

^ mine are blue rest of the pics are on page 2

 

I just did mine, this is what I used in order from left to right.

 

Pimping! I have purple RGII's I think this would look awesome!

Did you photochop the rotors on there? Shading is off...

 

nice. like the purp. like the wheels. like the tires

 

The rotor look funny cause they use to be color matched to the red that the calipers were before. I had them painted to match but had to paint them too so they can match the purple. It is a little over spray cause I had no tape so I just used a piece of paper, then went out and got painters tape.

i need to do this in the worst way

 

doing mine silver this week

 

good stuff I wouldn't even know what color to paint my brembo's lol

 

Pick something you will like and is unique

 

makes me want to re-paint mine

 

to everyone that painted their calipers, they all look great. I just had a couple questions before I get underway.

1.I am debating between using the high heat paint with ceramic (resist 1200*f) or the engine enamal (resist 500*f). I am not sure how hot brakes actually become. Engine enamel would be perfect for motors obviously since they dont or should not operate anywhere near 500*.

2. did anyone bake the calipers after painting them? I have seen exhaust parts sprayed with the high heat and then baked for a few hours afterward.

thanks guys

 

Another option if you don't want to use stickers for the brembo logo is to do a two color paint. For instance, if you want the brembo logo to be silver on red calipers, paint the entire caliper silver, then use a normal sticker for the brembo logo. The sticker is just a mask, then respray the caliper red, or color of your choice, and remove the sticker to reveal the silver logo. Follow up with some hi-temp clearcoat and call it good. That way there's no worry about the sticker peeling.

Just a thought.

 

That looks awesome!!
