Painting Calipers

[J.Miles21]

Im about to get my calipers painted..but i don't know what colouri have a black AC, with my summer tires being black 19' rennsport tires

im deciding between black, blue, or gold

ur thoughts

[bembol]

You have a Black Coupe, Black 19's. I say go with...

Black. Unless you want the attention, Gold. Blue doesn't work/more for White, Silver Coupes.

I'm going with Black this Spring. Winter is here, no point doing it.

Red is the best color in my opinion. Red is also the original color of Brembo calipers Are you painting them yourself?

[windhaven]

Red would be a great offset IMHO .....

Im going to paint mine red when the spring comes around... they also sell these aluminum high temp foil stickers... you can have Nismo or whatever you like going down the caliper

[gotak]

I am going to suggest a bright pink.

[altimacoupeboi]

If you plan on taking your calipers apart, any hi-temp paint like VHT or Dupli-Color will suffice. If you plan to brush paint them while they're still on, Dupli-Color sells a hi-temp brake caliper paint kit which has a brush, paint and a cleaner.

so u can c that u can get all of them, and mix some colors to get something u want, seems like yellow is not on stock, I had 3 layers of different paint on my prew sentra, so go ahead and experiment it.

p.s. sorry for my Russian

But, you can just head to your nearest automotive store and pick it up for $14.95. That's what I paid at a local Checkers.

I had much better luck with the brush on vs. the spray. Jack up one side of your car & take both rims off. You can go back & forth putting layers on the calipers.

Yeah Spray looks like if you spraypaint your car.. just crappy..

HERES THE STICKERS....HI-TEMP RATED...
