One of the things that caught my eye when I was considering purchasing your vehicle. The new color is nice. I gotta do my fronts real bad so I will probably paint them when I swap rotors/pads. The rears I will probably just paint black but the fronts.... I haven't decided yet..

For guys that did G2 paint, is it a good idea to use a high temp primer and then the paint? Or does it work better just going straight onto the caliper?

I've been thinking about doing this and I was wondering what paint you guys are using. Are you using the G2 or duplicolor? Which one is best and how long does it last after you put it on?

there has been a couple people to go the high temp paint AND there has been a few people who used the brush on caliper paint.

either way,it seems that whoever has painted them either or,say that its held up just fine.

its just like painting something. 70% prep work and 30% painting.

i think when you use the brush on stuff,your kinda limited on colors. i could be wrong,maybe someone else will chime in who used the brush on paint.

well, I didn't like the blue, even though it was a nice color, so I did gloss black for now. Dupli-color brush on kit is good, but needs many coats due to it being a thinner paint.
