They look really nice. How does one go about doing this? Would you care to share details? What type of paint did you use? Did you take the calipers off? etc?

Simple really simple really. I didn’t remove calipers just masked behind and around them with newspapers,cleaned the Cali per of all dust etc and spray painted them with a few coats dried using a hairdryer. And then applied the dlogo.

What brand/kind of paint? Hi-temp? And where'd you get the logo?
Great idea - looking to do this myself.

actually a shop did it for me its an international ( dont know if im allowed to say thier name here) company for wrapping and other stuff .
and yes its Hi-temp and the logo its paint they did it. Its better than a sticker more durable and unfortunately i dont know what kind of paint they used but they gave me a lifetime warranty
