Annother G2 user here - I did mine in white. You have to be able to get all four wheels off to use the G2 because of the time limit. It goes on very thin initially, and sets up to a very smooth finish when it dries, almost like a powder coat finish. They guarantee it against flaking and chipping.










Whatever you use, prepping is very important. I used 2 cans of brake cleaner and a brush - the rear calipers were very dirty with dust, much more than the fronts for some reason.

Dupli color from advance auto parts. $20.
Cleaned them with the brake cleaner and a brush then applied 2 coats.

G2 all the way!!! I've used it before on my previous vehicle and loved it. Very high quality, it's worth every penny.
