Chrome brackets and red painted calipers....Hmmmmmmmmm !

I guess I have to polish them smooth anyway to paint them, so here goes.

I'll get pics of before and after.

Thanks ya'll for the tips.

I've seen chrome brackets with red calipers, it looked pretty sweet. Well good luck, make sure you get pics!

Have fun... You'll be at it for a while . Definitely sand all the rough stuff off the caliper but there is no need to go anything past 1000 grit to paint...
