Painted Calipers

I painted my calipers this last week and am not 100% satisfied with the results. The G2 paint is very watery making it difficult to not get brush marks. I went back to do my touchups but, the paint had already hardened. When I do my brake pads I'm just going to pull the calipers off and spray them. It looks good from about 3 feet or further away but, I'm just too picky I guess.

I also painted the center caps and put metal Porsche crests on them. I think they look fantastic! Stock center caps will not work with my wheels.

I also bought the silver bulbs to completely de-amber but, they sent me 2 sets of straight pin plugs and I need 2 sets of angle pin plugs. They're taking them back and paying for the return shipping back to them. The side markers are the only one's that fit.
