Default Finally painted calipers

Used the black Dupli-Color kit.
Pretty easy.
Didn't do too much masking, just took my time.
Also put blue pony decals on the front.
Not a color match to my car, but still looks good to me.

Nice job! I used black Duplicolor also. 5 coats and a year later they still look good. Plus you can reuse it or paint something else, (no 2 part epoxy to waste) Pony emblem adds a nice touch.

Ordered blue today for my car along with some drilled and slotted rotors. I hope mine turn out as good!

Looks good; matches your car better.

My car is silver, so the caliper color came matched from the factory lol.

The first picture had more sun on the lens.
The second picture, while not as clear, shows the true color, black.
