Default Need a shop to paint my brk calipers

I'm looking for a shop in the LA area that would be able to paint my calipers for me. I know this is more of a DIY thing but I dont want to go through the nightmare of what happened last time I tried doing some brake work. My calipers somehow turned to a bright bronze color like rust which is really starting to look nasty.

if you buy the brush on kit you dont even have to remove them from there mounts. it is real easy. i have still not done my car but have done all of my cars in the past.

cant recomend a shop because i have never been to cali.

I did mine a month ago with the Duplicolor paint kit.

Took me a few hours total, and the results really are super.

People who aren't into cars have commented on how pretty they look.

I used the G2 caliper paint ( brush-on kit ) and the results were very good and relatively easy to do. I bought mine through this auctioneer:
