decals are on, i LOVE how this whole thing turned out.
i put them on last night, alnog with another 3 coats of yellow.

and as for how to paint them, just please make sure that you clean them really good, and when you think they are clean, then clean them 2 more times.
mask everything off relaly good, this is spraycan, so it will go everywhere, and use light coats, then when you think its yellow or any other color enough, do one heavy coat to get some gloss out of the color, which will also make for easier cleaning later on.
best way to cover the whole area around the caliper is to get a big garbage bag, cut it so that its one big sheet, and then in the middle make small cut, and then put it over the caliper, and since the bad is stretchy you can make just pull on it until you can slide it on the bottom covering everything but the caliper...kind of like when youre putting a rubber band over something, its small, but as you pull more it stretches over and when you let go it just tucks in under....i dunno if that makes sense, but try it, it worked great for me

heres a quick pic of decals on
