Well, I had powdercoated them, but applied the decals and they stuck right on righteously.

Are you sure you removed the peel-off backing from the stickers? IIRC, I had problems getting them off because it sticks to the graphics pretty good. Once you get it off, you'll know as the stickers are like superglue. They are VERY sticky!

No, something is wrong and it probably won't work very well with superglue. The JVD stickers are made of a material and backing that actually bond to the calipers as a result of the heat generated by the brakes. They are extremely sticky so your claim that they aren't sticking leads me to think you have not removed the actual backing. IIRC, the actual graphics are very thin, I remember having problems getting mine off the backing at first.

You might want to contact the guy at JVD and let him know about the problem you're having - something's not right!

i did contact him anfd he said that my capilars have to be painted, on the stickers there r only 2 peel thing u must take off the first one is the one that goes to the caplilar and the second one is the one u peel off when it;s apllyed right. so i did that and the first one didn't even wanna stick on at all. i was what the **** is this . i guess i got a shitti sticker. anyway i really don't think he would send me another batch cuz he said that the caliper needs to be painted. so like always i'm screwed once again ( there goes 15 dlls)

I am sorry for not replying earlier. You must first PAINT the calipers, and then apply the stickers. These stickers, atleast I dont believe they will, will not stick to the stock unpainted caliper.

If anyone has any problems, contact me through email (jvdgraphics@gmail.com) instead of contacting me throgh the posts bc I do not generally go through the forums due to time constraints.
