hey everyone, i know i got kind of a stupid question but here is my problem, so i finally have time to go to the store to pick up some paint inorder to paint my callipers black and i go thier and i see that there is two different kinds of paint, there is the glossy kind and then there is the dull kind, so i was wondering for those of you have have painted your calliers black which one did you buy, the glossy kind or the other duller kind, and which one worked the best for you, in terms or not chipping and everything, i would appreciate any input i can get.

Thanx

Go with the G2 paint, its glossy and holds up very well..........$45 for the kit which includes paint, hardener, caliper cleaner and a brush.

Im thinking about doing mine when I change my brakes and rotors.

i know that a lot of luxery cars already have thier callipers painted, im surprised as to why our cars didnt come with thier callipers painted.

for the record i didn't have to take mine off too, just mask off the rotors, etc... the pic is my caliper off coz' i already got brake upgrade.
