Caliper paint kit
 
I bought the G2 caliper paint kit and it sure doesnt seen like enough paint. You guys that have done it did you have to use it sparingly?

No Problem....
 
I did 2 coats each caliper, and had plenty left over....
That will look nice with your Guards Red....

Make sure to post detailed pix like you did with your supercharging mod. Calipers are my next project. I'm weighing all the options.

Ok, I will do that.

I used that G2 and had wayy too much. I looked in and saw half a can and was like wtf, but once you do all your calipers you still have a quarter left. I took lots of pics and posted them... I think. It wasnt hard, I recommend 4 jackstands and paper towels. Like everyone says, use the whole can of cleaner. Mine came out awesome.

I think somebody painted that yellow. Mine aren't yellow either.

LMAO! After I posted that, I hoped you didn't get angry with me. You know I was just f'ing with you. ;) By the way, that's a yellow car. Mine are silver. I'd take a picture of them and show you, but it's still in the &^%#*% bodyshop!
