Sharp21's Caliper Paint on DIB

[sharp21]

EDIT - Photobucket pulled the plug so I've uploaded the pics I can find. They should be at the bottom of this post.

DOUBLE EDIT - Nevermind. Still doesn't work...

I've been meaning to do this for a while, finally got a free day. Good thing my schedule was clear as it took a solid 8hrs!

I went with Burnt Copper by VHT and am very happy with how it turned out.

:clap2: Looks like you did a real clean job. Taking your time with the preparation was definitely worth it!

That looks awesome! That was my suggestion to go with that/similar color in the DIB caliper color thread.

Also inb4 someone bitches that you don't have brembos....

Thanks, it turned out great. The VHT is real nice to work with.

I want to paint my calipers, just don't have the time. I hate these stock gray calipers.

Unfortunately not on the car yet since I'm waiting for drilled/slotted rotors as well. Here's a pic of them off the car though. I went with some gloss clear coat after just to give them some more shine.

Spray. Makes for a lot of prep work and you need to be very careful when spraying. Overall I was impressed with how professional the paint looks though.

Is your screen name also a reference to "Monica bang" from the Friends episode?

Monica is actually the name of my mustang, which is how I came up with the name. I'll have to check that episode out though, sounds like a funny coincedence.

I won't reveal what happens, but "Monica bang" is what Ross' little son Ben kept saying.
