[QUOTE="Blown281USMC, post: 10565508, member: 50835"] 1. Get the high temp stuff first of all. 2. Buy both silver and black. 3. First clean them up really good with brake clean, soapy water, and a good brush. 4. Make sure they are really dry. A heat gun or even a small torch works best for this. 5. Spray the letters silver, It doesn't matter if you get some on the caliper itself as it will be covered with the black anyway 6. When the silver paint has dried, tape over the letters with painter's masking tape 7. With a good razor blade, trace out the letters and leave the tops of COBRA taped up 8. Spray the rest black 9. Peel off masking tape after the paint has dried And your done!! I say to spray the letters silver from the beginning because other wise the "COBRA" will still corrode and either look like crap, or bubble up the black paint and look like worse crap. Good luck, and post up some pics when your done! [/QUOTE]
