Does this look rice to you ?

 

I'm glad you people liked it, I created the logos myself from a pc and then gave them to the workshop I work with to use them as outline.. As to the paint I really don't know what they used as a brand name but according to them it's the same paint they use on damaged Ferrari calipers...


Those guys were very professional, they are the best in my country

 

Just finished my calipers this weekend. Spent 5 hours with a die grinder cleaning up the rough stock castings, and then applied red G2 caliper paint. The paint flowed nicely, and IMO looks as good as powder coating (smooth and glossy). I placed silver S2000 decals on the front calipers, and brushed rustoleum clear gloss over the decal to prevent them from peeling up. If I knew how to post pics I would.

For those interested in the caliper decals, there was a group buy for them not long ago, or you can find them on E-bay (go to "car accessories" and put "S2000 decals" in the search. Company name is decalgirl, and she is great to do business with!

I see.

 

I think painted brakes look great. IMO painting with the brush looks much better than the spray. I will also throw in that the sloted rotors makes them look 10x better. Here are mine (red/siverstone s2000)

 

If you paint the caliper, paint the discs as well. The rust really shows up when you draw attention to the caliper. This is of course of you still have stock discs. I love those stickers on the calipers guys, would love to have a set.

 

If you notice, the top pic shows the new powerslots that I put on. I agree though, I wouldn't do the calipers without the rotors. As for the sticker...they are sold anymore here, but you can look on ebay and get some. Do a search for s2000 caliper decal.

 

Thanks for the info.

 

wahoo just got my G2 paint.. gonna paint the calipers this weekend and hopefully get my hands on those s2000 decals

 

If you guys are interested in the caliper stickers, I sell them. I have already sold a few sets to members here on the board. They should tell you within the week how they like em.
