Default Yellow Calipers on my Spa

Although there were probably posts & pics back in Photopoint's heyday, I found it difficult to locate/search for pics of any Spa S2Ks with yellow calipers. As I've recently painted my own calipers yellow (thanks tims2k for the paint! ) I thought I'd share. Cleaned up The Bruised Banana for the OBX run this past weekend and took these shots. I'll likely have some more once I go through all of the digi-pics I shot over the weekend. Anyway, here they are:

-- Again, still sorting my laundry & stuff. Gotta upload my pics through a bud's hosting server. I've given him my smartcards...so I'll should know something by the end of the week.

How is the finish?
-- First, the color. It is (as tims2k said when I asked prior to purchase) "Yellow"...not Spa Yellow...just yellow. I'll go further and say it is BRITE yellow. Not a *bad* thing...but an eye-catching thing for certain. The finish is quite tough. To the fingertips, it feels "rubbery/plastic-like". Great coverage & smooth texture.

How much?
-- I purchased through a group buy. Believe it was ~ $25 for a kit of 2 pint sized cans...and add tax to that.

And is it brush on?
-- Yes, brush on application. Which was very important to me b/c I did not personally wish to remove my calipers to spray. Nor did I wish for overspray issues to exist were I to have attempted to spray while calipers were on the rotors. I purchased a couple 1" natural fiber paint brushes (one part of the epoxy paint combination would make a huffer's wet dream -- very likely would have gnawed up a plastic/nylon bristle paint brush).

Hope these answers are what you were looking for. Feel free to ask any additional ones.
