I went ahead and painted my calipers this weekend, I wanted something a little different than the red seen on most cars. I know Porsche uses Silver, Black, Red and Acid Yellow so I went with a neon green.


Prep, scotch bright and masking




After a first light coat




Second coat




Porsche stickers applied and a clear coat of engine gloss applied

 

Looks fantastic.

That looks really good! Funny I was thinking of doing something with mine as well, not sure the neon green would go well with my theme, but very well done. How many total coats did you put on (paint & clear)

 

Two coats of paint, and the clear coat is just sprayed over the decals.

 

Ohh, my brakes are this colour too.
Will post a pic later.

 

 

Porsche uses same color for the hybrid version of the panamera.

 

The Hybrid is Acid Yellow, not green

 

Understood, I hope it stands up/holds up well.

 

I am not talking about the PCCB brake calipers. The hybrid calipers looks close to the same.

 

Read "lime green" and was prepared to not like it but that actually looks amazing.

 

what paint kit did you use? And what clear coat brand did you use?

 

The Paint kit is the G2 Caliper Paint Kit in Lime Green
The Clear is the VHT High Temp engine enamel

 

Nice Job ...I'm about to do mine in G2 red. Did you use the Preval spray gun system? Thanks
