Zaino and painted calipers pics
Well, finally got off my lazy a$$ to Zaino my baby last weekend. I've also included some pictures of my painted calipers. I only had time to apply 1 coat of Zaino this time. Will apply two more this weekend...if the weather cooperates. That ZFX stuff is pretty good. Just apply it with the Z5 and by the time I'm done going around the car, it's dried and ready to be buffed off.

Hey Mr. Hyde, is your painted calipers starting to chip yet? I'm starting to see signs of that from the front calipers. Maybe I didn't clean them enough before painting them.

Loving my 08 TLS!
Nice pics! I have painted my calipers to aluminum/silver too and mines are not chipping at all. How many coats did you put on each calipers? I did around 3 coats.

No it's not. I think the angle of the pics and body kit certaining gives the "lowered" effect. I can't afford to lower my car here with the nasty winters. Don't want to end up being the snow scooper. :p
