The rear calipers are an oblong shape... I don't think a decal would work too good.

So? Cut the decal to fit it!

Or just make one to fit it.

Here, look at the rear caliper... there's no real place to put a decal...

I see it... oh well.. It's a pic showing that the rear caliper is not smooth like the front, so a decal wont look right..

I'm thinking about ordering a pair myself. Do you need to clear coat over them?

They will last longer if you clear them. There is no room on the rears unless its really small.

Well, then I guess you guys just need new calipers. That's all.

BTW, Camaro looks good on a caliper. But i was thinking of doing red letters on black.
