So I decided to polish my brake calipers, paint the pad brackets, and paint the rotor hats and edges today. I finished ONE, the driver's side front. Talk about a gigantic pain in the ***! I need more power tools.
I think I'll make a post about it in the Appearance forum. I didn't take pictures yet because it didn't come out perfect... it does look very good though behind the polished ZR1 wheels.

OK, so I went out and took a couple of pictures in the dark. I'll get some better ones tomorrow:

Update with pics! I can't review the forum from work so I don't want to bump our marker
Here are some better pictures taken in the daylight. Please excuse the water spots and stuff on the wheels, I didn't get a chance to polish them because the caliper took so long to do! I think I like the results well enough to finish off the other 3 calipers though, they really do look great behind the polished ZR1 wheels...

I think I'm going to pull my brake pad brackets back off, sand them, then repaint them. There's so much rough surface on them it makes it look like I painted over dirt.
