I want to paint my paint calipers red

my buddy just painted his on his rsx without removing it, could I do the same?

If so, does some1 have a DIY? or pics of red brake calipers on a OB? I did a search and couldn't find any

 

i think powder coating would be a better idea...paint tends to fade over time and you'll have to repaint them

 

thats fine i dont mind rpainting them
im planning to powdercoat my rims tho maybe i should ask to do my brake calipers at the sam time

anyone know what the total should cost around? powder coating 4 stock rims and brake calipers? and fixing some rim curbage

 

Powdercoat you are looking for about 400-500 for rims and calipers.

 

^that aint bad my friend : ) what color are u doin the rims??

 

I did this on my old 350Z using the G2 brake caliper paint kit.

The special paint dries on like powder coating. You don't have to remove your calipers but tape everything up really well so you don't end up with paint where it doesn't belong. Then I put on a heat resistant "Nissan" vinyl sticker. You can find them on eBay.

 

do you guys not recommend me to just paint it by myself? sand / primer / paint / clear coat? I did it for my front grill and it turned out fine

 

ok well I'm gonna do it in 2 days so may you speak now or forever hold your peace!!!

 

Ive used the G2 before on my old G, but i wouldnt use a brush on style for these brakes since they are already painted, the brush would leave brush strokes and look shiity.

Use a high temp spray paint and you should be fine.

Im gonna be painting mine in a day or two aswell.

HamstersG just did red calipers on OB.

 

chronic do you have a G37S?

 

We also use the G2 paint system. I've used it a handful of times and it works great. Held up nicely thru the winter also. G2 Caliper Paint System

 

ya g37s OB
why?

does anyone have pictures of what it looks like? cuz im not 100% sure itll look good, want to see what it looks like before I do it

ya of course use caliper spray paint, didn't even know people do it with brushes

btw did u get my pm ezzdozzit? can you email me the picture in your avatar? shift.2.drift@hotmail.com

 

he was asking to figure out if you had the sports package or not...

why don't you just powder coat them?

 

I was just about to make a thread on this as well. I have all the stuff I need high temp caliper paint, brake part cleaner spray, and high temp Infiniti logo. I have the S only thing im a little scared about is will they chip when I have my brake pads replaced which I will need to do with in the next month or so??
