looks like this came out well, was the paint made for brake calipers? I've read that paint/clear coat used on calipers can change color due to how hot it gets down there. I ask because I'm interested in this myself...

Also x2 on the stickers

Are those stickers built to handle the heat? Or will they burn off after a day of tracking? Just curious. If I do this mod I need AMG stickers haha

So any chance of a write up on materials used and how you did your calipers? I would love that color on my car as well.

basically the calipers were cleaned with prep wash everything masked up then primered with a small spray gun

This colour was then mixed in a small spray gun and sprayed very lightly going side to side

Cause its 2pak it dries pretty quick
give the calipers 2 coats let them dry and then spray a clear over them

the clear changes the colour a little but its for the better
