Painted my Brembos

This is what I spent the weekend doing...I think it turned out awesome...










Sorry it took me a few tries to get it right...I hope you guys enjoy!

All I did was mask off the front part and then take off the calipers and paint them...took the tape off the front and it was finished! I was not expecting it to look this good with the front face left unpainted, but I wanted the Brembo left on...it turned out surprisingly well...

Man, I have been wanting to do that but I am too lazy. I want to pain my valve cover but the damn intercooler pipe that runs over it have that little hex bolt under it and I can not figure out how to get it out...

But nice job on the brakes

Yeah...I took the calipers off (didn't bleed the brakes or disconnect the lines) and just hung them with some wire coat hangers...I painted pretty much anything that wasn't going to be in contact with the pads or needed the clearance....pretty much all the way around the outside...

You would have to be an artist to get in there with the red...the silver Brembo logo is just painted on...

I think it looks nice and clean just leaving the whole front black...
