Different Color Painted Calipers Whats up guys. I searched and didnt see a DEDICATED Thread for Fbody Brake Calipers painted.
I myself have a White SS and dont know what color to do. I am going with white/grey theme but I think grey calipers might just look "dirty" or "salty".
Post up pictures of YOUR Fbody Painted Calipers.
Please dont Quote pictures.
Thank you.
Lets make this good enough to be a "sticky thread!"

I am LOVING the polished look.
How did you do that?
Steps?
Did you actually have to TAKE OFF THE CALIPER or where you able to have it "hang" while doing it?
I have a white ss with Chrome Z06 wheels (like the other 99.99 percent camaro's out there lol
I just ordered orange vht spray from summitt. I doubt it will look good.. Supposed to be more of a "burnt orange" color. And THAT would look good I gather. But the POLISHED looks really "clean" and "correct".
If you dont mind, please give me ANY information on how to do this. Right down to the how to take the caliper off lol!
Is there any rightups?

It's not a complicated process, just very time consuming. If you plan on doing it id set aside a weekend or more to get them looking good.
I sanded my brackets down in the same way to give the paint a nice smooth finish.
