I did it on my 99 cobra when I bought it. It turned out good. Then my buddy bought an 03 Mach I and did the same. His also looks good. We did the calipers red and the frame black. I would recommend it.
i say do it looks good on white i did mine a while back i need to touch them up tho
It's one of those small things that in the end cleans up the look of the car a lot.
I was thinking of red calipers and painting a white or black "mach1" or "running pony'' symbol in it.
idk ive thought of doin it all red with the frame or do black frame an red calipers
what do u recomend

I have seen it both ways. I prefer the frame black. When you do it though, you should really take the pads out and paint the clips on the back of them black. Makes a world of difference.
I custom painted mine red with a silver pony in the middle and painted the bracket black. Here's a quick pic.
Stage3 Motorsports sells a super high quality paint kit for the calipers...$37 ..a two part epoxy paint that is so hard & durable..much higher quality that the more common duplicolor spray can...plus it comes in tons of colors...
"yefferys50" How did you do the horse on yours
That is the stuff I wanted to use when I did mine but I couldn't find it. I have seen it used on other cars and I will admit it is hands down superior to the duplicolor. However, I did use both duplicolor paints (the brush on and spray) and I will say they do work well.
that looks nice. ill do it one of these days
pony on caliper
Its actually quite simple. First paint your caliper white or silver. Let it dry then place a mustang sticker on the caliper. Then paint the caliper red and let that dry. Remove the mustang sticker and clear the entire caliper. Let dry and your done.

I did it on mine, and they looked like crap after one season and required another coat of paint to make them look good again. I just cut my losses and put on the Ford pre-painted calipers which are much more resilient.
If you have regular rotors paint them too for a really clean look.
