It's like a whole new car...

 

Nice Work! Did you use spray paint or brush? What type and mfg. of paint did you use?

Looking Good!

 

Sprayed on with VHT Caliper Paint (got it from Autozone). The decals are from xenonmods.com.

I'm very happy with the look. And thanks!

 

Nice, glad it worked out. Looks good!

 

did you take them off? How do you avoid over spray?

 

From the looks of it, he sprayed on it without masking, even the clips got painted, which is not an issue. Nice.

 

Did you do the rears,too?

What kind of stickers are they? And how much?

 

Yes, the back were done too. And no, they were not taken off before spraying. I didn't go to all that trouble just to have a splash of color. The stickers were only like $8. Hi-temp and made for this application. Check out www.xenonmods.com.

 

Can someone so a step-by-step on disassmbling, prepping, painting and repacking calipers an put it in the DIY section please? Good looking calipers BTW.

 

Can you please take a pic of the rear too? Did you use just the L?

 

what about to avoid painting the rotors...im assuming the paint was brushed? This might be my next mod on both cars.

 

Here's a crude picture of the back. Need to clean the tires and wheels but you can at least see how it looks with just the "L" - also, I had someone do the spraying and he did a pretty decent job masking the rotors. There was a little paint near the center of the rotor (since he couldn't mask all the way down in that crevace) as well as a little on the edge of the rotors but a little paint remover took that right out.

 

what did you use to prep it rubbing alcohol?

 

I actually used glass cleaner. But I'm sure rubbing alcohol will work too.

Funny that the L looked crooked in the picture...

 

I will post better rear pics tomorrow.
