Re: painted my calipers..(PICS)

looks good. i dont know about red n blue though. think you shouldda went red/black

red/black is my first choice. The thing is, i can hardly see my calipers through the wheels i have, sot he blue won't show too much anyway.

The new brake pads i bought came in blue, so i didn't have a choice, and i didn't get to see them before i bought 'em :(

here's another comparative pic of the wheels:



it was seriously about 5, 10 minutes max per wheel. Worked great, highly recommended.

Wow, that looks really nice!

What did you use to clean the inside of those wheels? Was it just Brake parts cleaner and lots of elbow greese?

I Used paint thinner or mineral spirits and it got all the tar and brake dust gunk off. It works really well becuase won't hurt chrome or any other finish but will get all the crap off.
