javapda Posted February 14, 2006 Share Posted February 14, 2006 Has anyone have any experience painting their brake calipers? If so, what type of paint? What precautions taken? Favorite color for calipers? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kcpth Posted February 16, 2006 Share Posted February 16, 2006 I've never done it. But it looks pretty cool though. I wouldn't mind seeing how a gold or red one would look on mine. However... my car doesn't have n e thing fancy like rims or body kits. My car is just plain old stock stuff :P But to answer ur questions... here is a link. Hope this helps. http://www.lexusownersclub.co.uk/forum/ind...?showtopic=5602 The guy painted it gold. Showed some steps... n even put a Lexus logo sticker on it. So take a look... n pick a nice warm day to do it. HEHE Tom Well u live in Arizona... i guess everyday is warm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
javapda Posted February 20, 2006 Author Share Posted February 20, 2006 Thanks Tom, That's exactly what I need. Color: I am considering a red myself, but not sure the exact color red to use. I like the look of the red calipers on some of the vettes around town. But the gold looks good, if I had a gold package I'd be more gold-inclined. Thanks again, javapda :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kcpth Posted February 21, 2006 Share Posted February 21, 2006 No problem... glad i could help... even though the credit goes to the author of the tutorial. Red sounds good. Probably would work well. Nice racing type colors. Take some pics when u have it done... i would love to see it on ur car... as i have the same car... however... i have the Gen II Rims... so if i were to ever do the project... it would look better than on the 1st gen rims.
