My car is being face lifted and should be done very soon. Very impressed with the brake job they've done.

 

nice! The yellow calipers will look sharp. Are you getting anything else done?

 

Looks great, that cool that they did it on the car. Thought you would have to take them off to have it done.

 

From my caliper painting experiences, I've always taken them off the car to paint them. But then again, i'm very particular about the finish. Still looks very good. btw did they also paint the bleeder valves?

 

that would be a hot contrast

 

The shop recommend not to take the brake of the car because you will need to bleed the fluid after the job is done. They shot the paint in every angle possible since the car has been lifted high enough. It took them awhile to wrap everything up. I don't think they paint the bleeder valves.

Here's my list of the project:
-turbo front bumper with lip
-painted side markers
-litronics
-front fenders
-GT3 MK2 side rockers
-02+ rear bumper
-yellow brake calipers painted
-sports exhaust tips
-smoke tail lights
and some interior job.
Looking to get a pair of GT3 seats and 3 spoke all leather steering wheel.

 

I think Eli has some seats on eBay for sale now

 

Thanks Targa but the seats are now SOLD!!!

Anyhow, I wondered why they didn't remove the calipers...... If they needed to flush the system then this would be a good time to. Just seems like a whole lot of work instead of pulling them off......

Take care and good luck,

-Eli

 

Oh well .it's too late now huh, but thanks guy, I will keep an eye for the next available pair.

 

Hope they hold up for you just as you would expect! They look great in the photos, remember to post up the photos once they are back on the ground!

Good Luck,

-Eli

 

Whats everyones thoughts on caliper/car color? Do you think a Yellow car (Lambo pearl yellow) with yellow calipers would look good? Or do you think contrasting would be better, with something like red?

 

THEY ARE UP FOR GRABS AGAIN!!!! The darn buyer backed out, I have a feeling that he was short on the funds but started with the 50 post-auction questions.

Let me know. . . .

-Eli

 

It makes the car look brand new. Update us in about a year or two about how it's holding up. haha

 

Looks good!

 

What kind of paint are they using? I didn't think you could get high temp caliper paint in an aerosol can...
