Painted my calipers

Used the Duplicolor Spray kit. Sorry the pics are kinda blurry, but it looks great.

RE: Painted my calipers

looks awsome bro i'm trying to do the same thing myself, how much did the paint cost you and how long did the job take all-toether, did you just remove all the tires one by one jacking up your car? the more info you can give me the better, looks great

I think the paint ran me around 8 bucks. I used deglosser and a wire brush that I had lieing around to clean the calipers. I did take each tire off one by one and the prep was a pain. Id say all together it took 7 or 8 hours. Its definitely worth taking the time to make sure everything is clean and taped off.
