Hey guys, i really want to paint my brake calipers but im a little nervous. Is it easy to take them off or if i remove them will def. have to bleed the brakes? Im afraiid of overspray on my brand new Z

 

How about not doing it so you don't get flamed for being a poser?

 

Moved to proper forum (another one)

Search this forum for "caliper paint".

Get the G2 paint kit, it's brush on so you don't have to spray.

 

Get a Sharpie in whatever color you want. Goes on easy, no overspray problems, and it's hard as heck to get off.





To top it off, there's no aging problem like there is with paint. It'll look like crap from the moment you put it on.

 

 

Don't paint them

 

Just don't, its very simple to not do it and looks better.

 

If you do, don't do a bright color... just stick with black or silver/grey

 

You should do it lime green!!! That would be sweet dude!

 

Storm brewing on the horizon.

 

 

I painted mine using the G-2 system and I think they look pretty good.......

 

+1. Bright color makes your tiny little calipers show more.

Use G2 paint. Less headache.

 

no disrespect waizzz, but what is he "posing" as? I think he is 100% a person who wants different colored calipers.

he didnt post "hey all, i really want to make it look like i have brembos, but dont wanna spend the $$, are there covers for the brakes to make them look like brembos?"

 

a little off topic but what is with all the complete newbs with the face palm worthy questions. im truly starting to believe the 350z has officially replaced the civic and stepped up as the new rice mobile

 

What color? Silver or Black will yield less flaming. I havent done it, but I imagine its all in the cleaning (just like anytime you paint a dirty part). Douche them in brake cleaner and mask everything off well if you have to spray. The G2 brush on ones ive seen seem to have come out well (no brush marks like you might think).
