I can see it?

 

Damn, that Rotora blue does look nice. Would probably look great on your car. Might even look nice on my ASM, despite my lack of Volks with matching decals...

 

When does it stop? I ordered paint to change up the colors of the Brembos. I'll do them on Saturday if that paint is in

 

It never stops, like diarrhea.

 

 

No, the other end.

 

 

There ya go.

 

I keep going back and looking at pictures of the color I've chosen. This weekend can't come soon enough.

 

Tell us!

 

^what color?

 

If I tell, what's in it for me?

 

Austin will "assist" you with painting the calipers

 

As good as that sounds, I would think sloth claws would hurt so I'll pass.

 

 

 

I know what you did. Post pictures, now.

 

Will this suffice Tyler?

 

Of the new color you bish

 

One side is already done. Just waiting for the clear to dry. I could take a picture but I've got Chick fil a

 

Yum. CFA.

 

Chich fil a > pictures of Brembos

 

fatty

 

And for that comment, I can't get pictures at all today.

 

 

Fine Tyler, I'll give in and post pictures.


I decided to go with a BMW blue that was only available for a few years before it was discontinued.

The picture a little up the page is how they looked before; Silver with an oversized Red Brembo decal.

I went with a standard sized decal, 3 1/2 inches, at the suggestion of Rockstar and I'm glad I did.

For the painting process, I just sanded them down with 350 grit sandpaper, used acetone to wipe down the calipers, then I did 2 light coats of color followed by 4 thick coats of color, after I let the paint dry I put the decals on and then started with the clear coat; 2 light coats and 4 thick coats.

Well without further adieu, here are some bad pictures. The sun went down before I could get some in the light so I'll take some tomorrow too.








And here's a picture of the rear covers redone:

 

SICK! Congrats dude

Why does it look like you have so much wheel gap with those springs?

 

Not sure. I noticed it too when I took the car off the jack. I think they may need to resettle a little bit?

 

schmaybe

 

That's all it was. I'm back to a finger gap now

 

Oh no, you painted the rivets on the rear covers! You could've taken them off with an Allen wrench before you painted them. Oh well, not a huge deal, they still look good.

 

I didn't even know they came off.

 

Took some pictures today and really liked this one. You can see 2 of the small changes I did to the car this afternoon.

 

But what you DIDN'T do was remove that stupid pinstripe

So headlights and calipers?

 

Hell will freeze over before that pinstripe comes off. haha



You got part of it right. I got some carbon fiber vinyl and covered up the headlight reflectors with it. Other thing was I finally took off the front mud flaps.

 

Ah you did! Very nice! Time for A-Spec side skirts to finish it off

 

Hey, have you ever considered removing that pinstripe?

But seriously, calipers look sweet, they came out really nice and look great against the WDP.

 

Thanks for the compliment.

Your comment has convinced me to ditch the pinstripe.

 

But my constant nagging since you got the car never convinced you!?!?!!?

sinep

 

The pinstripe will NEVER come off.
