Very nice job !

I got to work on mine last night. I painted the front calipers red using Duplicolor Caliper Paint. It was easy and a nice shade of red. I put 2 coats on right after each other and have let them dry now for 12 hours. After inspection, I can see some translucent areas, so I am considering another coat - will see..... They look good tho!

VetteNut and Bangcok - what type paint did ya'll use? What about your spare tire carrier - looks like gloss? what type? any specs on how long ago and the durability of your paint selections?
