Tech article on my caliper decals in Camaro World Magazine! Tech article on my caliper decals in Camaro World Magazine!
This is really cool! I guess they saw enough of my caliper decals at car shows across the country to warrant a tech article on how to detail your calipers and apply the decals. A lot of the articles detailed instructions were copied directly from my instruction sheet so the information is very good. Their methods of painting the caliper is a bit strange but the outcome is pretty good overall. I'd suggest painting the entire caliper. The only thing they forgot was to mention where people could get them so I guess I'll have to. You can get them here: http://www.afterthoughtsauto.com/brakcaldec.html or directly from me at mark2000ss@attbi.com. Same product and price either way.
This is the issue that the article is in:

Re: Tech article on my caliper decals in Camaro World Magazine! Mark, I'll send you an updated pic of my brakes with the chrome caliper mounts. It REALLY enhances the look of the painted calipers with decals. You can have Afterthoughts Auto replace my current TA pic with the new one <img border="0" title="" alt="[Cool]" src="gr_images/icons/cool.gif" />

Re: Tech article on my caliper decals in Camaro World Magazine! I read that article over the weekend. Sucks they somehow forgot to mention where to get the decal. I was wondering if that was yours or if someone else is making them also, which I am hoping is not the case.

Re: Tech article on my caliper decals in Camaro World Magazine! Congrats Mark.. funny since most magazines give parts sources when doing tech articles?? (usually in exchange for free parts)..
Oh well, least YOU know its you <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" /> Remember, any product worth a damn will get copied.. and while it may bug you it is a sincere form of flattery <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />
