Painted calipers...

Decided to paint my calipers this past weekend while replacing the rotors/pads - Duplicolor paint, pewter on the calipers, black on the brackets and cleared over everthing...

Let me know what you think!

Yes, I know the car is dirty

nice work, would like nice to have the rotors coated in something that would shine though.

Looks good man. What does duplicolor call that color, cause it matches the pewter really well? and which caliper decals are those?

The Duplicolor cans that I got are T408 Pewter and T169 Black. The pewter does match the GM Light Pewter Metallic extremely well. If your car is Dark Pewter Metallic, then you'll need to find a different Duplicolor because it has gold flakes rather than silver...

PM me for details on where to get the decals...

Thanks for the nice comments!
