Looks great.

What did you clean them with before? Did you sand or do any prep work?

Is this just rattle can paint and clear?

Yeah man thanks berti00 we only painted what people can see the inside was not painted. The surge tanks are easy to come off but make sure to primer them and clean them real good

Used degreaser to clean it all dirt off wipe clean then use 300 grit sand paper scuff the calipers then some brake parts cleaner to clean off excess Then mask everything paint 3 coats and clear 3 coats

and finisheddddd!!! just gotta get a hold of bruce and get a set of stickers now :)

Looks good:y are you going to paint those rusty rotors?

Doing mine red as we speak with black AMG decals.. Looks good:y

Could you provide the brand of paint and clear that you used?

I used the G2 caliper epoxy crap on my brakes and it was a nightmare. They need to be redone.

Thank you

I may try this in the spring when it gets warmer here in Chicago. Thinking of maybe doing lambo orange.

You have to clean them real good with engine degreaser first then spray brake cleaner then 320 sand paper to scruff the whole caliper really good and then brake cleaner again to clean all dirt off then use these paint first then clear

looks awsome !! paint the rotors black!! be soo fresh.

Nice color choice

Thanks guys

Did you take the surge tanks off to paint them, or did you just mask them off? And did you just use a heat paint on them, or a clear coat too?

Only suggestion is to paint the hat on the rotors too. I think someone suggested black, I personally like silver better.

You have to take the surge tanks off in order to paint them.. and yes they are getting painted same color as the calipers.. used High heat paint with high heat performance clear coat

Thanks - :y
