I painted my calipers blue. I was hankering for red but I just feel that red is too common. So I opted for blue because I think it will add a nice accent to my silverstar cornering lights plus I recently plasti dipped my wheels so I think the black & blue will make a nice statement. I just finished painting so here are pictures before I put the wheels back 29252

I think there were a couple floating around in the for sale thread recently. I don't think you can purchase them directly anymore. PM martyo he might know :)

Looks great, did you paint them while still on the car?

Yeah sure did lol. I didn't feel like bleeding my brakes so I just took my time. the g2 kit comes with a paintbrush and I went over each caliper about 3 times

Any pictures with the wheels on? I have been thinking about doing the same on mine, but I still have the polished wheels and can't decide to do all black calipers or blue.

Yeah I did. One of the reasons I opted for blue is because I recently plasti dipped my wheels & think the black & blue combo really stands out. If my wheels were still chrome who knows what color lol
