Well Im tring to do an all black/mystic clean look. So, since black doesn't stand out very well, I painted my calipers as close to the color of my car as possible, and the fade turned out really well! But im still not sure. The pics HONESTLY don't do any justice. What do you guys think?





Here is a basic idea of my car... (and i already chanded the ugly tips. )

Thats really clean! Looks mean as hell, I want to do the same with my LPM. Where did you get your wheels? I've never seen ZR1's with the whole lip polished not just the outer edge?

Yeah pewter would definately look good on your car! And I got them from a company that sells on ebay, even though I didn't actuall purchase them on ebay. You have to call them in order to get them. I just honestly remember the name. Ill have to look at reciepts or something..

Thanks to everybody who likes it!! And yeah the white leather came stock on my car. (there is another thread about factory white leather seats posted last night in appearance and detailing that i posted in... They're for sale so check it out if you're interested.) And as far as the ZR1's go, PM me and ill tell you where and how you can get them. And again, thanks!

what color was that paint, i did red but i need to redo mine and like how they came out

Here is what I did:

1. Strip and sand down calipers.
2. Mask surrounding area.
3. Base coat was Dupli-color Metalcast Ground Coat. (2 coats)
4. Next was the Metalcast Yellow. (1 medium-wet coat)
5. This is the tricky part. You have to use the ground coat again to "sprinkle" silver flakes over the yellow. This it what you use to cause the fade you want.
6. Now for the Metalcast Blue. This turns the remaining yellow to a darker green and the silver flakes blue, resulting in a fade, like the Mystic paint. (2 medium-wet coats)
7. Apply decals
8.Duplicolor High-heat with Ceramic clear, 3 wet coats.

I have been using the Metalcast for a couple years now and have never had any problems, even on brakes. Hope this helps you!

I don't know what these guys are looking at, but I can't see ****. I can see the calipers, but I can't judge the color to the car because all of the pics are waaay to dark and don't focus on the rims/calipers at all.

Need better pics.

Here is a little better pic of the calipers up close. Ill take some that you can actually see them of my entire car when it stops raining outside here.

Thanks^^^

And I went outside and snapped a pic with my phone real qiuck just to show how close it is to my car. Neither my car nor calipers fade well due to the lack of sunlight. Hope you can see the similarity, its a pretty crappy pic. But like I said, ill take GOOD ones when it is sunny.
