Has anyone updated their caliper color on a MRM? If so, what color did you go with?

are you guys putting the Brembo stickers on before applying clear or on top after everything is done?

Before the clear. Make sure the paint is fully dried before hand. I jumped the gun on the rear calipers and the back peeled some of the paint so had to sand and respray them. Thus why I don't have stickers on my rears. Didn't have spares

I used them as stencils.

1- Spray the caliper all black
2- Apply the sticker
3- Spray with base color
4- Remove sticker
5- Clear coat

Yes, that is kind of the standard practice. Spray the brake. Apply sticker. Spray clear. Wetsand as needed.
