The ones I bought were straight. They are not available any longer. The ones on Ebay are curved. The decals are double sided, peel the front, lay them on the caliper, rub, then peel. I applied Enamel and polyurethane clearcoat to protect.

Thanks Virus,

I'm wondering how would the curved ones will look on the calipers...hmm. I'm thinking about getting them in black. We'll see.

Hey tenblade2001,

What kind of clearcoat did you use? And where did you get it from? I've ordered the curved ones, because I don't think they would look too bad on the calipers. Thanks!

You can go to any paint shop or home depot and get outdoor clear spray enamel or polyurethane. That's all that is important. Stinger used minwax on his.

I found some old threads with caliper stickers, but not what I need.

I am about to paint my calipers with the G2 system, and apply the curved S2000 stickers. I can't find any pics of the REAR caliper with the sticker. I'm not sure where it goes, so I'm lookin' for some visual aides here.

I think I've seen it on the bar of the rear caliper, but want to see proof.

Thanx,
Hockey

Has anyone with the decals run a track day? I'm wondering how well they might survive conditions where the brakes literally smoke and the brake fluid has been known to boil. I love the looks of them, but want to continue to do a track day here and there.
