Painted my Brembos

[Snakebitten]

I ordered the G2 caliper paint and Brembo decals from Flea Bay. It went on fairly easy, two coats. I tried to mask off the silver end bolts, but they just didn't turn out well, so I painted over them. I may try and find some small round silver overlays for them.

The problem with the G2 is that once you mix the accelerator into the paint it starts to harden after 4-6 hours. Due to other reasons, I didn't have time to do the rears, so I had to order another batch. I should be able to do the rears on Friday.

It's a little pricey, but good stuff. If you get it on your hands or anything else, it's hard to get off, so mask carefully.

Had the camera on the wrong setting, so that's why it's blue.

Looks very good! Get those rears done and post some more pics! :beer:

Did you brush on? Does it leave brush marks?

Yep it's a brush on. It's pretty thick, so if you're careful, little or no brush marks.

Dude, you're making me want to mod my car more. You're evil, and the car looks awesome.

Thanks, did you get the stripes changed yet?

Thinking about blue. Or black

That looks great, OP! Good job...:beer:

I like that, was thinking of doing powder coating but yours look really good

Brembo's deserve to be red. Thats their traditional color. They turned out nice, and I can relate to your complaint about the G2 laquer hardening so fast.

 

[Bowtie-X]

Thinking about painting mine gold to go with DIB or even white to match the stripes. Heh...still thinking. Did you brush the paint on or spray? Look good.

just makes you realize how bad the brembo calipers look from the factory. this is the first car i have seen come without nice gloss black or red brembos.

 

[kingnut]

[Snakebitten]

I'll get some.
