Painted brake calipers

Finally I was able to paint my brake calipers. I painted them yellow because that maches the car. I also decided to use Brembo stickers instead of Porsche. I used G2 kit and I did not use clear coat over the stickers. More pics on my blog @ myspace.

Very nice! I like it. I hadn't thought of doing a Brembo sticker like that. My calipers are currently the only thing on the outside of my car that says "Porsche". I'm sure I'll have to repaint them sometime in the future and when I do I think I'll do a Brembo sticker like this.

Love the yellow

of course, I might be a little biased ...
