Brake Calipers and Spinners/Knockoffs -- Done!

Hey everyone,

I finally got around to painting my brake calipers. I bought the paint kit from G2 and followed the directions. I didn't take off the calipers but I did mask out everything else. While I had the wheels off anyway, I also added the BRS spinners/knockoffs I got. I've attached some pictures of the work in progress and the finished product.
Here's a little tip: if you put the paint in another container, make sure it is not plastic! That stuff ate right through my plastic cup I was using in 5 minutes!

Bryan
