Where can I find metal emblems for my calipers. I don't want any cheap vinyl, that looks like cheap garbage. I see this guy from another forum did his, looks pretty good. There's got to be a company that makes or carries'em. Any clue?

Would really appreciate the help, been searching for a bit now.

Probably custom. I know I have never seen them offered anywhere. One concern I'd have with that is the adhesive getting hot & lettin the emblem loose inside my wheels while driving. At least with the vinyl you can stick them on & clear coat over them. that keeps them looking new & will also keep them from peeling off.

Haven't had a problem with mine... Those metal places look nice though

Good point, but I'm sure there's adhesive that can handle the hot temps.

Never thought about putting clear coat to protect the vinyl, do you suggest a clear powder coat?

I want to go black calipers and shiny lettering for calipers.

DRGnFLYZ28 did you put clear coat over your vinyl decals? your brakes look pretty good.

Where do you guys suggest getting the decals from?

I found these on afterthoughtsauto

Thank you

No clear coat... just the reflective vinyl decals.

If I recall, I got them from the ws6 store.
Here are a couple of other vendors:

I just had vinyl on my old calipers and never had any problem with them chipping or anything. They held up really well. Plus for $5 you can't really go wrong.

Any Idea where those metal pieces came from? They look killer! I want some...

+1 They have the appearance of being machined in the caliper. Very nice.

All I used on mine was this:

1 coat Duplicolor adhesion promoter
2 light coats Duplicolor caliper paint
applied decals

Next time around I'm gonna clear them though. I drive my car daily year round & the vinyl is starting to peel up at the edges. you can't expect unprotected vinyl to last under those circumstances.

I bought mine on ebay, I've had them for a year and they still looks new. I don't think they look like cheap garbage though.
Those calipers are F'n sweet though.
