The paint is actually good. It's the caliper that's "bumpy."

i painted my 05 calipers it took about a year or a little more for it to start showing chips, but that could have been improper prep, next week when I paint my 07s I will take more time to prep. I am also going to use the whole paint can this time

I used this paint on a 78 Corvette, 67 custom Pic-up, and I am in the process of doing this to my 95 Cobra. I had good results with the brush on kind but found the spray on gives a better covering but you have to remove the calipers if you are going to spray them. I'm going red on the Cobra and will let you know how this turns out. Yours look great by the way.
