were all staring close up at a decent caliper…When their on the car with wheels they will look like a million bucks…i bet 1/10 people would have sucha interest in getting up that close to check out a painted caliper behind a wheel…It looks great…but what colours the car? cars silver/grey/black id have a black caliper with silver lettering etc etc that gold colour will go well with quite a few body colours.

The car’s black with 350z track edition rims… i guess if it doesn’t look good, i can always sand it all off and do it in another colour.

as for what enzo said, I agreed untill you said you had 350 wheels, the brakes might be a little small, the GTR ones would fit in there nicely, plus the aluminum ones have a better feel to them (clean and simple casting). But yeah, the brakes will look much better behind a wheel.

Here are mine, I had them powder coated and then scraped the letters with a file to get a nice ‘brushed’ look, and am going to apply a thin layer of high heat clear to the letters.

^see the quality of the finish, this will help resist adhession from brake dust, whereas teh paint will not have the same effect. Cleaning time owns you… I trust you use high temp paint

In the long run Powder FTW

I used a paint brush to get the nissan part red, and both paints are high temp brake enamel. I’ll get pics of them on the car as soon as i get the new pads so i can swap em in.
