PLEASE DO NOT COMMENT ON MY TIRE SIZE/ WHEEL GAP! I KNOW THEY ARE EXTREMELY UGLY AND IM WORKING ON THOSE. THIS THREAD IS FOR MY CALIPERS......with that said, while the org was down i got my calipers painted. they look pretty good and stand out pretty well behind the rims.

 

yea I remember seeing your car on the other forum. Looks good, red was the first color I chose when I painted mine

 

Looks good. Did u just use caliper paint, or did u use clear coat and other stuff? Beats that rusted look huh?

 

i got this $15 kit from walmart, it had a cleaner, and a brush on paint that is a ceramic kit. its just the paint. yea it definatly beats the rusted look.

 

What a wheel gap! and whats up with the 14 inch wheels + low pros...
























It looks good, it's brush on from walmart? Havn't seen that before, Very nice

 

sir i gotta know whats up with that and what size are those rims??

is the car still jacked up??

im assuming u bought those rims from a crx or honda civic type of dude.
im not trying to be an *******, just curious

 

they are 18s

 

Where in Walmart was it, automotive section or somewhere else?

 

hey leave him alone they are 10's but there clean

 

Nice paint for the calipers. I painted mine red when I had the rotors replaced. Definitely makes your car standout.

 

you've gotta be joking about the wheel gap. you still had the car jacked up in that picture didn't you? i hope so!!!

 

at wheel gap...i could stick my head in there.

 

TOO ALL OF U DUMBA**ES, LEARN TO FREAKING READ! I DID NOT START THIS THREAD FOR YOU ALL TO COME AND TELL ME HOW BAD MY WHEEL GAP IS! I STARTED IT TO SHOW MY WORK ON THE CALIPERS! GET A LIFE AND LEARN TO FU**ING READ! I POSTED CLEARLY AT THE BEGINNING OF THIS THREAD THAT I DID NOT WANT ANY COMMENTS ON THE TIRE SIZE/WHEEL GAP. PLEASE LEARN TO READ.

 

hey relax little guy. if you post a pic on any forum, especially a pic like that one, you're going to get some feedback about it. it just happens. that's life. if you can't take the heat, get off the internet

 

I have not seen you around here, Irish, but it says you have been here since last year.
Anyway, I try to keep up with all the Crimson Blaze Maximas, because they are special to me. he he.

Put some diamond cut clears in the front, dude. It helps a lot. $40 from like custommaxima.com.

The calipers look really good.
Mine cost about that much to do.
I just used the red duplicolor high-temp paint from autozone, and the high-tem clearcoat to make them shine. See:



As you can see, the paint for the calipers I used is holding up well. I think I did this back in march. They are still great everytime I wash my car.

Keep up the good work, man.
You have a gorgeous maxima.

 

Look out, he's Irish!!!

 

About how long does it take to do this mod?

 

It depends on how you do it. Some people take the entire caliper off and do each individual part. Some just mask over what they dont want to get paint on. Me, I did the first, and it took me a few hours.

Irishmax, yeah dude dont sweat the net peons. Too bad you have to build/have a temperment for the immature ones that wouldnt have the ***** to tell you anything about your car in your face. Enjoy your modding and keep it up.

 

Ive got a great idea. Lets take these rims off this mini cooper and put them on this maxima. YAY. atty:

 

I was joking, I saw your calipers and even commented on them, now all I have is one question...

Did you get your wheels off one of those clown cars? or a Metro perhaps?


We're just joking around, don't take anything personal. Seriously, when you do get more tires think about getting a larger tire they cost less and will look better.

 

no, i did not get the wheels off a clown car, a metro, a civic/crx dude, or a mini. da*n. i got them of CBwheels.com. these are the tires that came with the rims. 1299 shipped, mounted,balanced. i had the rims on my 92 a while back, if u know anything about max's you know that there is room for larger wheels on 4th gens. the wheels looked OK on the 3rd gen. the wheels are 18"s, not 10"s for 16s, they are 18"x 7.5". i will get new tires when these are done. its either pay for new tires my self now, or get new tires from my parents when the time comes i actually NEED new tires. so get off my back. and YES I AM IRISH!!!!

with that said, and hopefully ended, brudaddy, i just got the max like a month ago, then i got a moderator to change my name. the whole painting time took about 4 hours for all four wheels. i only put on 2 coats of paint on them each, but there was enough in the can for probably 5 on each, so it could get alot cleaner-looking. with the kit i got from walmart( got it in the auto-dept. where the car paint was) you dont have to take the caliper off the rotor at all, it gives u tape,paint,cleaner,stir stick, and brush. just give the brakes a good cleaning and then apply the paint. not too hard. thank you to the guys who actually stuck the the content of the thread and didnt say anything about the tires/wheel gap. oh and brudaddy, nice ride man. us crimson blaze need to stick together, who else has the red?

 

What's with the wheel gap?

 

Man yall gonna make this guy go crazy.






BTW it looks good.

 

Looks good how many coats did you put on?

 

yea, looks good and i got the same kit, but in silverish grey. nice

 

When mine were done it took about 3 hours cause i had rust out the *** on them and had to clean that off. Took another hour or so to dry. Took about 2 coats of paint.

 

mtmzg, i dont care if your a moderator or not, u suck.

it only took 2 coats on each caliper, i want to go back on and get another 2 coats at least on the front ones.

 

seems like this whole wheel gap thing is a touchy subject around here

 

Someone is ****y.

 

Apperently p i s s y is a bad word here?

 

I am going to paint mine gloss black tomorrow, I dont want it standing out too much on my car so I am going with the color of my car. Would the high temp engine paint work on the calipers?? I cant think of any reason it wouldn't.

 

i am allowed to post about your wheel gap..
