Caliper Refinishing
I painted my calipers with VHT bright blue. Its not bright at all and that's what I was looking for
Before, First or second coat Took the liberty to repaint my hubs and wheel bolts I sanded down all the casting lines and dimples to get a smooth finish ] Same caliper as before picture without the clip. Done |

great work, but I've never seen calipers that rusty!

Definitely didn't want to stand out with my measly stock calipers. I figured this was a good balance.
The options were Silver: everything on the car is silver Black: not very interesting Red: not a race car, not brembos Blue: that'll work If I redo it, it'll likely be with g2 in estoril or montego blue So far so good no chips or flaking. We'll see what the pressure washer does |

Well if you ever want a real big brake kit let me know. I'm considering selling my Stoptechs next year. They are specific to the 3.0si =)

If I wasn't so lazy I'd do that to mine. Would go well with Interlagos Blue.

looks great mate, you don't always have to have the red light on to attract people to the red light district. I think it looks classy, esp on silver. good job.
