Finally painted my Brembos

Been a minute since I've posted any new pics. I been to busy admiring the creativity of others on here along with work. A good buddy and I painted my Brembos. I had three choices in mind- 1st I was thinking black and red, then I even thought of doing black on black, (cool thought, but wasn't sure how it would really come out), and then I finally decided on black on white.

Your thoughts?

It's very easy I just went to the DIY section read over a few threads of folks who've done this before me and just did it. Lol !

Like many have said before the KEY is the prep work. I made sure to clean and scrub the calipers really well. Then I hit it with the primer (take that -take that.. Little Puff Daddy) . Let that settle for an hour or so.

In that time treated my boy to lunch at the diner. By the time we came back it was ready for the flat black, and after that dried for a few hit it with the gloss.

But just check out the DIY section- painted calipers. GL if you do attempt to do it. Thxs for the love I appreciate it

I like your white on black. Did you clear coat on top of the sticker?

They came out really good. I was thinking about painting mine inferno orange to match my stripes. Not sure how that will come out.
