nice job... they came out good

 

very nice!

 

Good lookin paint job, I did mine blue,I think Im the only one

 

I didnt like the blue cause it looked like a baby blue. THanks for the compliments. Im very meticulous about my car and i did 2 coats everywhere on them that i could get to.

I could tell you did 2 coats, it has that' put on thick look'

 

Is that bad???


Rick

 

I think it looks sweet... good job.

 

looks really good.

i want to do it. i had the kit in my hand but i am totally mechanically/ everything retarded. even though it doesnt really require mechanical ability. i would probably screw it up. lol.

how long did it take you?

 

Looks good, I think red calipers look good on any color car....IMO

 

Nope...you're not the only one!

Not sure about yours, but as mine dried, they became darker, and now they are a respectable true blue...not the baby blue on the package pic.

 

i took the blue dupli color paint and added some cap fulls of the black dupli color and put kinda of navy blue on my calipers, its a black ss/sc

 

I did the blue calipers. and i can confirm without a doubt that the indicator on the box and on the tin are very baby blue

but the paint is NOT


it is a nice solid blue exactly like the blue cobalt in the top right corner of the site.

 

I did mine red too!! but i only did the caliper. I used 3-4 coats on each. I didn't do the mounting bracket though
