New Brakes and Painted Calipers
New Brakes and Painted Calipers
Well here are some shots of my brake job and Caliper painting I did this past weekend, I should have taken before shots but I never do, lol
I used G2 Caliper Paint kit (Black and Orange) and Powerstop Evolution Complete Brake Kit (K2815)

LOL, funny you recognized that, yeah I have heard horror stories where if they want the wheels bad enough they will take all the lugs off except the one they can't and drop the vehcile and break the stud, so I figured probably won't break that easily with 2. I'm sure if they want it bad enough they can get it. But I just wanted to make it as hard as I could for them.
I like the pics man, my car is the same color. I just recently bought some wheel spacers, and am planning on painting my calipers when I have the wheels off to install the spacers. Still trying to decide on the right color, though. Not sure what will look right. Did you consider other colors as well?
No, it does. Lol. I just recently installed eibachs, and my car is still settling a bit. I'm just not very good yet at looking at people's wheels and knowing the size in order to judge what has/hasn't been done.

Someone a month or so ago had a thread asking about what caliper paint color to get (maybe it was you). I piped in "have some fun, be adventurous, get something colorful and different, just don't get black, blah blah blah."
Now here I am wimping out and not wanting to do something colorful. Lol. I just don't know with metallic slate what else matches well. Maybe copper? Dark blue? Brick red? I don't know.
Anyway, sorry to distract from your thread. Looks way good man, I definitely am happy for you with the setup you've got. What's next?
