Hey,
did they change the brake calipers in the 2010? my front brakes dont look the same as the pictures in this thread. The ones from here are full and have no gaps. mine is gapped? i mean its not one big piece its like 2 pieces...

here's mine.
maybe abit flashy in hindsight but when a bunch of us locally all decided to get ours done around the same time, f-sport blue, red and black were all taken up before I could get a word in and we all wanted different colors from one another. ive grown to like it mind you lol. but damn, that purple is quite interesting.
I think I bought my decals off bombgrafx but apparently the stuff off motogfx is easier to work with.

Can you post more pictures? I am thinking about painting yellow also with a 350 BBK on my 250.
Thanks.

I feel getting caliper covers are better than painting them

I just painted my calipers using the g2 paint system. it is very easy to apply and takes no time at all. the only time consuming part is masking the areas where you dont want paint to hit.
just make sure your first coat is very thin. when you go to do the 2nd coat it leaves it really even........
