I might do mine white or baby blue.

 

What color should I do mine? Don't know what would look good behind polished wheels

 

you can see mine here, there High Temp engine painted yellow with a grey brembo logo then clear coated over a few times

 

i am trying to paint my calipers Crystal Red Metallic. same as the car...


any good ways to do this?

would like high resistance to heat ofcourse lol

 

I really like the chrome stock rims!! I think the calipers would look great in red with those rims

 

yeah same here... would look really good on an HHR or something lol

 

love em, what paint did you use it looks like it matches perfectly with the car

 

Probably high temp engine paint yellow as he stated...

 

^^ word lol just some stuff from Auto Zone

 

vht ? cuz they got diff brands and all of it looks like different shade of yellow

 

meh

 

Looks good. ��

 

whenever it warms up i have white g2 paint im doing mine in..

 

with high heat stuff like calipers, valve cover. things that don't get extremely hot i just use a high heat primer about 3 coats then use normal paint then clear. it works just fine.

 

is your color srtc or the crystal metalic red or whatever?


and did you pull the calipers completley off the car or just tape them off and spray them on the car?

 

What size Brembo decals did you guys buy from HouseofGrafx?

 

subd for size haha

 

call me lazy for not reading and seeing if this has been answered, but for those of you that powdercoated your brembos.....did you guys have to get a rebuild kit for them afterwards?

 

^^^ depends how smart you are and if u want to wreck your car because the brakes dont work. We no longer offer an exchange brembo pc service. The cores were awful and folks got the deal of a lifetime, a freshly pc d and rebuilt and or new brembo








oh how did that get in here? lol

 

 

it was just a question...I just don't know a lot about brakes, so I didn't know if it was going to entail a full rebuild or if there was just some kind of lubrication required after powdercoating.

 

sport red metallic tintcoat and i taped everything off. brake cleaner and scrubbed. sanded. brake clean again. 3 coats of high heat primer drying it with a heat gun after each coat. then 3 coats of the metallic paint once again drying with the gun. then waited a day and put the stickers on. still need to clear coat them.

 

if you have new clean calipers that have never been used you can pc them. If they have brake fluid in them they need to be stripped. I do that put in used seals and pistons and then do the work on them. if you get media in the cylinder bores you can scrap the caliper.

after they are coated i remove the slave parts, wash, chase the threads, wash again and then assemble with new seals and pistons, and pins and clips with both brembo copper anti seize and ceramic brake lube on the bridge the pads and the pins. anti seize is bad for seals, but brembo put it on at the get go , on the backing plates.

I use ceramic brake lube there instead, and also on the pad backing plates for the caliper bridge.

 

Can I have that VC and Spark plug cover? They are shiny..I love shiny.

 

yes you can lol/
