I would like to see some..thanks

 

Just did them, I'll post them for you tomorrow. Are you just trying to get an idea of what they would look like?

 

I'd like to see some pictures also, I thought about doing that myself.....

 

I wanted to do this after see in ITR's in the GTP races here in Australia. With racing pads in the Calipers get so hot they go a dirty black colour. I thought I'd paint mine before they looked like that.
I once saw some High Temp Paint in a small kit called a "Caliper Paint Kit". I can't find it now..... I can get spray cans of 1500 degree C paint, but it would be a bugger of a job without removing the calipers. The Caliper Paint Kit had a foam applicator to make it easy. Anyone seen this kit?

 

just spray it w/ hi temp paint...if you get some on the rotor it'll wear off w/ use of the brakes....

I've seen people pay places to spray em and that's all they do, they aren't going to take the calipers off either.

 

yeah, i just wanna see what it would look like

thanks

 

here you go:

 

Well, if you do any lapping you'll start burning the paint off the calipers and they'll look even worse. Foliatec and some other companies make this high temp paint your talking about. My friend had that done to his car and after a good hard lapping session, they started bubbling, smoking and burning turning black.

Personally, I would never do it, but if you must, make sure you don't do a lot of lapping or they'll end up looking worse than b4.

 

Well, this is true to a certain extent... I used the foliatec stuff and it only has started to darken on the edges of the front calipers from a hard lapping session... If you get a nice high-heat ceramic paint - there are some good for 1500 deg. Farenheit... you should be ok with those. They come in a can, but you can just spray some in a cup and use a brush to apply. If you spray, the particles can get in the air and onto your car! Make sure you mask off the areas you don't want to paint when doing your calipers and use a nice brake dust remover spray prior to application.

I'm happy with mine so far.
