Painted my calipers today
 

Calipers are painted and some much needed wheel cleaning. Ever notice how nasty the inside of your rims get..

Looks good.I have been wanting too do that too.

how do you do that? and would it stick out as nice as yours if my car is a dark blue ? just wondering, and yours look great.

Yours would look great with your black rims. I bought a paint kit to do it. came with some prep cleaner, can of paint, and a cheap brush. (get some extra small paint brushes). Alot easier than removing them and spray painting. But it took a little more time because I cleaned my inside rims. Results look pretty good :D

Here's a ccuple more with the camera flash. Shows up better. Also shows how my stang badly needs to be lowered. :rolleyes:

Looks good IMO best mod under 20 bucks...

Hell yea, and it's easy, my kit didn't even had me take off the calipers...two coats and two hrs later they were done, and i drove home that night on them...

Yeah they look really good with black wheels.

Should've had them powder coated... Go buy cobra brakes so you can see them suckers through them 17's!

Nice Job man!
Did you go with Duplicolor?

Thats what i got on mine.

How do you find places that do that?

Yeah man Dupli-color caliper paint kit. Think it cost about 20 bucks. Glad I had some extra paint brushes though LOL. :p

That's a good idea. I think when my little ole brake pads are worn out I will get some beefy brake calipers and rotors. And they'll be painted already. There are lots of different options for brakes. :D

Why pay more just for painted ones? powdercoat is just guna get chiped, Unless your upgrading the brakes already...

I watch too many speed channel shows. Car and driver, HP TV on TNT, etc.
They can sell ya on the upgrades they do to their cars. LOL. I'd like to upgrade my brakes, cause according to some shows, stock GT brakes are sucky single piston caliper ugly brakes. And they always look so sweet when they are done putting new things on.

In reality I will probably just slap some new pads on existing brakes but I gotta wish list a mile long.. :eek:

don't we all have wish list's that long.
nice job on the calipers.

Yeah that lil brush they give you just doesent quite cut it. <rofl>

hey those calipars look great on that 4 by 4 mustang....drop that thing already!!!!!!!!!!!! :D
