RE: Just painted calipers....what do you think
I mixed yellow and orange paints to come up with a matching color for mine. In the first pic, don't compare the calipers with the body. Compare it to the inner fender well. The paint is a perfect match. The reflection of the sun on the clearcoat makes the Grabber Orange paint change colors with the light. The second pic shows the match when the sun is not shining on the car.

Nice job guys. Love the Pony decal(?). Didn't do mine they came that way but they don't look as good as yours.

...they're like fake t*ts - look good at first but then when you realize what they really are you get disapointed

They look great. What materials did you use, and what sort of prep work was required?

How did you glue the decal on and doesn't it melt from the heat?
Curious as I am thinking of doing this to my 2003.

Ireally can't remember where the heck I got the pony decals, but let me tell you....they have not peeled yet, nor warped. Although I don't have a high mileage overall....9 months/3,000 miles.
