Get Tim to do your brakes. He's closer.

The caliper paint is G2 orange HT epoxy. It wasn't a bad process. If I do it again, I think the quality and ease would be better if I leave them on the car. If doing rattle can painting, removal is definitely the way to go.

The head light color was matched to the calipers by Bref at the local Sherwin Williams.

Thanks for the feedback and support!

Here's the latest update done while replacing a broken headlight bracket and fixing my headlight positioning....








Sprayed the grille with KH3 and clear coated it after a 600 grit scuff job. Car still dirty from reassembly, but not much time to wash it today.

Came out great. Makes you wonder why someone would waste their time putting rubber on their grille.

Ahem. Dash...

PS nice finger prints. BRB calling CSI to nab your prints and place them at scene of my next crime.

Major finger printing....Dropped 3 screws during disassembly and reassembly...Dropped inside the bay, between the wheel well lining and bumper. Name an inconvenient place and I probably dropped a screw there this weekend.

I then coated the car with the grime accumulated while finding those dropped screws. I saved extra for the headlights that was carefully applied during the precision alignment so they wouldn't gap or rub.
