Painted calipers

Anyone have any pics of this mod with stock or aftermarket wheels? Curious to see how noticeable it would be.

Can kind of see it in this pic. I can get a better one tomorrow too

Thanks for the feed back to itch them up do you just take off the tire?

I've used the duplicolor and the VHT caliper paint. The duplicolor has a nice glossy finish, but I feel it doesn't last as long as the VHT. The VHT I had was more of a matte finish and was very rugged. It had much better chip resistance and because it was not shiney like the duplicolor, it didn't show the brake dust.

I paint my calipers so that I do not have the ugly corrosion showing through my wheel, not to have my calipers "pop" with a glossy paint. This is another reason why I prefer the VHT.

I've used Rust-Oleum caliper spray paint on my trucks and my wife's Charger. Its been two years since I've done her car and it still looks new. Did my truck about 2 months ago.

I think I may try yellow.

I'm going with blue if I do it. Wonder if the ford header blue would be close or what it would look like or hold up.

heres some better pics I promised

Does anyone have the painted calipers and stick beadlocks?

I'm going for it, trying the VHT don't need it to be flashy just looking for subtle.
