We made sure to use the brake dust spray, use alcohol to clean off the calipers and the masking and taping the calipers took about an hour for each one. The paint looks great, matches the car, I hope it stays for at-least 3 years, because then I will just purchase the name brand calipers. Its a lot of work, but very worth it. I am pretty happy. We let the paint dry after 2 coats, then I would bake it a bit, with a regular hair dryer. One set was done in humid weather and the other two were done on a sunny day. Driving home a few hours later was fine. The back caliper had a reaction to the first coat and the silver dots (caliper color) came through. I cleaned this section off with nail polish remover, and cleaned up with alcohol, and re painted the spot and it covered just fine.

Iphones are pure balls. Their owners are also generally the least educated sheep in the world.

Notice I said generally.

Well, I've owned almost all generations of iPhones, with zero problems. I tried the galaxy s2, so I wouldn't be a sheep, and it was pure crap. iPhone ftmfw

IPhone is a great device if you like to be told exactly what to do. I find it weird when people who buy cars to mod them, Camaro folks, then choose a phone with no customization ability and absolutely terrible performance.

Then again, I dev for Android so I'm extremely partial.

Lots of cool things if you jailbreak the iPhone. Which takes no time at all, and can go back to a previous date, if you want. I agree, the customization is not as great as android, but I had so many bugs with the android. Also, I know all smartphone batteries suck, but android takes the cake for sucking the life out of the battery. Lol. I think ease of use goes to iPhone as well. Just more user friendly.
