Terrible job? r u 4 real? i dont know that much about brakes, but i can paint. I painted my own calipers this same way. As for fucked up the brakes, as far as im concerned his brake pedal, as well as mine, are still functioning exactly the same. Pads are wearing the same, and everything ****** works A ok. Really dont feel the need to elaborate to a **** nut, but they were scuffed and sprayed with high temp caliper paint, then clearcoated with clear coat mixed with silver pearl out of a paintgun. You can get off your little bashing wagon n stop over exagurating n cry me a river. I taped out the rotor n car so i didnt get overspray on it, but didnt tape up individual componets and tiny metal clips of the brakes as I didnt on mine and didnt really see the need to on this one either. If you do, thats good, but so far a little paint isnt hurting anything.
I’m finally getting my wheel powder coated next weekend but can’t decide between a gloss black and a steel grey with a coast clear. I figure if I’m getting that done want to get my calipers powder coated a blue color. My ss/tc is silver so what do yall think would look the best? Big fan of HB SS/TC Wheels but i fell like a little darker color would look better like a smoked color.

I know the brakes still work and function,my point is,if I saw these at a car show/cruise night or what have you,I would think some 16 year old kid did this in about 20 minutes time after reading the latest ''Tuner" magazine.Unless you tape everything off or remove them and powder/paint them they look like ****,they look sloppy,and would lose points in any car show.
I got mine done in a dark gunmetal,my car is yellow.I can send you a picture from my phone if you pm me your #
