I did my first "ricer mod"- paint caliper.
the result was surprising so I wanted to share it.

Might just be me, but I can't see the pics.

I got my fronts on a week ago now, ordered decals for em this week and hope to get those soon enough.

Very nice! I'm getting mine done too very soon (gloss red).

Did you guys get them disassembled and powder coated or were they painted whilst on the car?

I was torn when I painted mine. Since I don't have access to a paint booth and mixing station anymore, the thought of using base coat / clear coat in Magnetic was tossed in favor of black. Guess I'm boring, but I like the way they look

Mine were a new set I bought and painted off the car. When/if I do the rears, they will most likely be done on the car.

Wouldn’t do powder unless you’re planning on having the calipers rebuilt after. Stick with high temp rated paint.
