Painted my calipers

This was a 4 hour project. I think they came out pretty good. I'll post another picture when they cure and I get my Brembo stickers on them.
I guess I'll be selling my MGP caliper covers now.

Looks nice. Did you shoot them with something or use the G2 kit?

The G2 kit is awesome. Mine turned out much better than I had expected. My only issue is the idiot that bled my brakes when he put on the stainless lines let the brake fluid run down the caliper. Now, I get to do it again.

Ugh. I would not want to paint mine again.
Hopefully once is enough.

Fortunately, I'm doing new wheels so I'll have them all off anyway. Good time to do it again, but the crappy part is it takes a few hours.

Does that stuff spray on or brush on?

Where did you get the Brembo stickers from? Looks great!
