G8 Calipers Painted

[Marklar]

I also posted this in the Corner garage but it probably belongs here instead. whoops! :\



Just finished..took forever but I think it was worth it. I went with red and black instead of just all red. Paint used was G2 Caliper Paint. It's epoxy-based and wont chip or peel away unlike the Duplicolor kit.

It does look nice! Gr8T job man. I have been trying to decide between just painting mine or buying the break upgrade. The thought of the GrandTurismo at $7500 is out rageous. Was thinking about painting them like you and adding some slotted rotors. Anyway, Looks nice.
wonder what color would look best on the Stryker Blue!!!!
