painted calipers

[1 PHAT 5]

does the G2 come in other colors like black, silver, or gunmetal...sounds like good stuff to paint my rotor hubs with.

I have only seen it in Red, Yellow, Black, and Silver

One word ------ ebay.

Or, go to G2's Web site and they have a list of online retailers.

i did this to mine and honestly i wish i would have done my hubs silver/aluminum. the black just looks ok

 

[protegeV]

hmm, u dont like the black?

someone was saying they were gonna do that to give their brakes the BBK look, since you would think the hub being black would makje the rotors look bigger...

got any closeup wheel pics?

 

[JOS3]

actually, i dont. i should take some, huh?

I think white calipers will look dope compared to the common red and yellow. I already ordered the white G2 kit i'm just trying to get some feedback to see if anybody has seen it and if it looked good??

 

[steve_protege]

Id like to find out how long it would take to paint the rotor hubs? Since I have a Protege DX sedan I only have front rotors therefore 2 sets of rotor hubs, correct? Would one black G2 kit be able to take care of all the hubs? How would silver calipers and drums with black rotor hubs look on a emerald green mica car with silver graphics and hypersilver & gloss black wheels?

doing it on Saturday.

I'll be doing my calipers tomorrow. Will be changing all the rotors to Brembo cross drilled and slotted. Changing out all the disc brake pads and cleaning/painting most parts in there. Removing the rear sway bar and repainting that and replacing the bushings that mount the sway bar to the body with energy suspension polyurethane bushings. Should look great, stop better and handle a bit better. Should cut down on the understeer in the front.

White would probably look really good on a blue car. Everyone does have red or yellow, so white would be unique too.

I plan on painting my calipers and hubs with the G2 system. Personally, my car is kinda dark, and I think that black would look good. That's just me, though.

enough with the talk, how about we see some pics of these painted calipers?
