Painted them today. Guess I didn't tape well enough over the piston gasket but that shouldn't hurt them beings its not that much paint on them. Thinking about putting some black paint on them to break the yellow up a little bit like maybe in the dimples. Making a stencil later for the gxp logo then I will paint it on in a few days and clear coat them.

what paint did you use, they look really good, and the clear you plan on using, is it hi heat clear?

Thanks! I used Duplicolor high temp engine paint. The clear and black will be the same thing.

Yes, it hold's up just as good as the caliper paint does if you let it cure long enough.

i foresee a regal with yellow calipers in my future. the calipers shine now, cant wait to see them with the clear coat.

Pics on car required.

and some rolling pics as well, please....

So.... what should I put on them as far as a design? Another gxp logo, a gtp logo, or a black arrowhead?

yellow will look good. i was going to do that but didnt have enough paint when i did my brakes... maybe when i get the vette calipers.

Here is my slow slow progress....



But unfortunately this is where it ends for a long, long time.

This makes me want to paint my vette calipers yellow...even thought they'd look like poo on a silver car...those are gonna look tits on your ride
