Krylon can be used for anything and the breaks shouldnt create TO much heat to eat away the paint but we will see lol. I needed something for the car show tomorrow and here is what i got as far as pics. I know i wont have as many as the famous spinem but i will try lol.

This is my tire all assembled before my 10 hour project day



Break calibers before i started.



After calibers

(back)



My tire after the day




And my favorite addition to the car

Lol took you 10 hours?? I did it in the dead of winter with a space heater and one jack. Took me about 2 hours and my dad helped a little bit. I didnt paint the brackets though.
