So did you use the VHT burnt copper product? Also where did you get the AMG stickers?

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
