Default PICS of painted calipers

this weekend I was getting ready for my 19 inch black sevans to arrive, so I decided to paint my calipers red in the meantime....for 16 bucks, it's an easy enough mod.. )

Here are some before pics:

What did you use to paint them? That brake paint kit or just red paint?

1. buy caliper painting kit from autozone, pepboys, etc. $16. and break cleaner $5.
2. search and print out DIY for painting calipers (audiworld/audizine). pretty self explanatory. jack car/remove wheel, clean dirt/dust from caliper, mask, paint (few coats), let dry, demask, put wheel back on. X 4 wheels.
3. good cheap mod that changes appearance of car.

I plan on doing this soon... RED! (matches tails)

You beat me to it! haha and one upped me by including the pic! glad i looked though I didnt know the kit came with the cleaner. Duplicolor rocks! ahha
