Weekend caliper project

I thought that i'd take advantage of the long weekend and do a little caliper painting. I used the Duplicolor Red Engine Ceramic paint and was surprised how well the paint came out. Add some lettering from Suncoast and viola, all done.

If anyone is skeptical about doing this mod, don't be. Its super easy as long as you take your time on the cleaning and prep work.

Car all jacked up and ready for paint


Calipers being prepped (you can also see my red H&R springs that I just installed last week :dance: )


All masked off and red applied with lettering


The hats on the rotors were looking shoddy, so i hit them with some high temp silver. (ironically, my drilled rotors arrived today so i'll have to rip everything apart again!)


All tightened up and back on the ground
