Caliper painting
Ok, I'm debating whether or not to paint my calipers with the caliper laquer kits. I have the FM paint but don't want to get red or yellow so do you think Black would look good?
Anyone do this yet? Please post pics if you have.
Thanks

I thought about doing black but i didnt think it would show up at all and would be a waste of time. I did red but since thats not what you want try silver or something that will show up more.

I painted my calipers this spring to match my RS1 and they look amazing. It really changes the look of your wheel-wells when you paint your calipers. I recommend doing it. I took my time doing it though and used a dremel to sand down the calipers so they were smooth. Take a look in the DIY section to see my write-up on how to paint your calipers.

Yeah, that's what I was going to do b/c my friend painted his but didn't sand them and said it was kind of a gritty feel. I wanted them smooth and very clean looking.
