Anyone else tried this? I just did it over the weekend and i thought it turned out pretty good. Only cost about 10 bucks too. Let me know what you guys think!

 

I've always liked painted calipers.... slotted rotors complete the package well if you can afford them.

 

I have painted calipers on mine. and that is with stock wheels.
To me it is one of the best things ya can do. it protects the calipers from the elements a bit more. and also allows you to have something other then rust to look at.

 

Looks sharp man and I love those rims. I plan to paint my calipers in the spring. Did you just use high temp paint?

 

I did this to my car a couple of years ago and used the paint from here http://www.eastwoodco.com/jump.jsp?i...emType=PRODUCT. It holds up much better than the kits they sell at AutoZone

 

I did mine 2 years ago and they still look decent, just some wear on them. I used hi temp paint, just be sure to clean them as good as possible. I used a can of brake cleaner and it seemed to work well.

 

The quality is always in the details. I hope you used high temp paint though. I didn't a few years back on a chevy pick-up and you guessed it. The paint now looks like burnt toast. Also I think mothers makes a wax for wheels that you could use on the calipers to help keep the dust off. I don't knowhow it will do on a high heat surface though. Just depends on your driving style. Keep it up. She looks great.

 

thanks for comments! I used high temp paint, cant remember the name but it looks like it should hold up pretty well. I cleaned and sanded them before i painted them.

 

I did my with the Duplicolor Caliper paint it was like $12

I did mine with a kit from teh local autoparts store. and they still look good if i get in there and actually clean them up . but most fo the time i wash them with a high presure hose to knock the dirt off.
