Painted Calipers

[Cascadia_302]

Dont get caliper covers please. The G2 kits can be purchased on tirerack.com, the one kit will be enough for front and back.

I agree, caliper covers are way over priced and look cheesey to me. G2 makes a good product, l have even mixed colors to create a custom color. You just need to make sure you maintain the correct epoxy to paint ratio. And as far as stickers go l would prefer to come up with something unique and not misrepresent them as "Brembos" when they're not.

where is the G2 kit listed on tirerack? I don't see anything

I bought G2 off Ebay without any issues.

Would go powder coating next time. Heard some pretty good feedback about it lasting much longer.

Absolutely hell no to caliper covers. Looks so cheap and embarrassing.

Heck yeah, PC is durable and the color selection is almost endless. Kinda liking the (factory) look of my brakes at least for now anyway. Maybe when l go to replace the brake fluid l might consider pulling them for PC.

I used the g2 kit. It turned out nice.

Is 1 kit (G2) enough to do all the calipers? I am thinking of getting them color matched to CO.

When you did the rears, did you take the calipers off or just leave them on and tape around things?

they turned out great!!

I like the way the fronts look painted but the rear calipers are hilariously ugly when painted. Anyone just do the fronts? How does that look.

They aren't ugly once the wheels are back on, they look a little silly when not covered, but once the wheels are on they look fine

One kit was more than enough. The orange matched CO really good.
