Care to share exactly what paint you used? Cost?

They look great.
I painted mine silver engine paint just so they would look "clean"... but when I finally collect the stuff for LS1 brakes I'm going to want them to "pop" a little more.

I will snap some pics with the wheels on today. The car is in the garage right now with no engine so i can't really take it outside. haha I gotta keep busy while my engine is away.

Thank you, I used the G2 epoxy type paint. The thing I like about this paint is when it is completely dry it feels kind of rubbery like a glove. So chipping it out of the question. As long as you prep the caliper good it will not come off. Costs $37 shipped, enough to do 4 calipers.

If you buy this stuff which I recommend, follow the instructions and mix the paint/epoxy and let it set up in the bowl for about 30-45 minutes before you start painting. This will let it thicken up and give you a nice coat. It's workable time is 5-7 hours I think so you should be able to anything you want.

I think silver looked better.

But then again I changed mine from orange (how I bought it) to black.
