caliper paint

[ovillems3]

where can i get a kit to paint my calipers? what is the best kit? how much?

i heard you can get a kit that allows to paint the caliper without taking it off?

i just got mine done at this shop near my house, Underworld Customs
i got mine done in red, and they came out pretty good.
altho, the seem to have some slight chipping, altho im sure thats just from when i lowered my car.

i got mine done for free, when i bought my rims, but i think they charge $60 or so....

just make sure you get high temp paint, but im sure u already knew that :D

**** the caliper painting "kits"

Wal Mart - pick up a can of 'backyard paint' (and yes its high resistant you can even paint your whole BBQ with it)
The colour I got was "CHINESE RED" it has held up for a year and a half now with no problems

ya i know about high temp paint, i have a can of black caliper paint
but want red and if i can i dont want to take calipers off.
i guess if its not hard and i dont need a special tool to take off the calipers then i wont do it the lazy way. has any seen this kind of kit where you dont have to take off the calipers?

I got the duplicolor kit, I don't like the shades red/blue/yellow that the kits come with, but I got the black so black is black.
