Painted brake calipers with yellow G2 on my Hyper Blue Camaro + more hi-res shots

Painted my calipers yellow with G2 high temperature paint over the weekend, it turned out awesome. Here are a few pictures of the process, fairly simple to do but you need some patience though. Put 3 coats of paint to make them really glossy looking!
Plus some parking garage pictures I took today with my new yellow calipers.

Loving this blue in the Phoenix sun! Already 1100 miles on it in 8 days, gotta slow up! Also, installed illuminated bowtie and covered the gold in black carbon fiber plus painted the back bowtie black.

Looks better then I thought.

You really should close your sunroof when taking pics, will look cleaner...

They are vinyl stickers on eBay that I bought! Super easy to apply and they lasted 2 plus years on the last Camaro.

They really stand out. Curious about the lettering as well. Love the car color!

When I saw the thread title, I cringed. They actually don't look bad though! It looks like you did a nice job of painting the calipers.

Looks awesome. They offer it on the vettes. They should offer different color calipers for the Camaro. Maybe next year.
