I've been thinking about painting my brake calipers, but I want to do them in a bronze color. Anyone know where to get high temp. bronze/gold paint? (I always see basic, red, blue, green, yellow, black, etc.)

 

i wouldn't do it imo

but to give you some info, you can get that paint at any auto shop like kragen or pep boys.

 

but in gold or bronze? I dunno, I never have seen it.

I know alot of people will say they would not do it, I understand. I just have some free time and calipers that are different colors! (black front, red rear...different brake donors)

 

actually, gold looks like its from the factory...

That looks great!

Either that, depending on your setup or flat black

 

Painted calipers are blah, but here are some old ones (gold) on an integra.

 

yeah i did mine flat black

 

mugen76 what size wheels are those? what size tires? 40's or 45's?

That would be good, where did you get the paint for that? I just don't seem to find gold color anywhere.

 

i got this from my suburban automotive store (they can't sell spraypaint in chicagoland-city ordinance for graffitti prevention) i think it was high heat engine enamel rated for over 500 degrees.. in gold. simple spray can for only $3 bux..

Ah, I forgot about that stupid ordinance
This could explain why I have not seen it!

 

Yep. i believe just one can will be enough.
