decided to freshen up my calipers...

[matt_182]

after never having painted calipers before i decided that i would have painted calipers for the first time. so i decided to go a bit different to everyone else and did them this colour...

opinions? i think they look quite cool personally. not something you see everyday

 

[Daniel]

is that 'Dyno-Rod Orange' ? lol

Looks good though!

 

[matt_182]

lol nope, plastikote flourescent orange. went on really well after all the calipers were primed. did'nt take long to dry neither but my brakes were already warm as i had just been for a spirited drive. love it

Get some decals on them and i think they would look cool. there are some renault ones on ebay.

 

[Rage]

Different & i like

got anything else on the car thats orange?

 

[matt_182]

nothing else on the car is orange, but i may powder coat the rear beam and subframe orange.

what decals would you suggest? was thinking of renault sport but i guess it may have been done to death?

[tedgeuk]

how easy are these to do?

 

[Rage]

bullets?

things that say 2.0 and 16V on your sidestrips...

 

[matt_182]

i was an idiot and didnt mask my disks, though all wore off later. very easy to do i just advise to get the brakes hot first so drying time is cut down. just make sure you clean them really well first then rub them down and clean them again/. achieves good finish results like mine, except you cant really see the finish
