Default So I Finally painted my calipers!

I've been stalling for about 4months now and finally got my butt up to do my calipers. Came out nice. New rotors coming in soon! let me know what ya think.
Oh incase anyone ask, I used G2 paint. Thanks for looking!

Very nice. I think a subtle color on the stock calipers makes such a big improvement.
