Had some spare time and it was kinda nice out today so I painted my front brake calipers. I'll do the back ones next. I also didn't like the machined, smooth finish on the outside face of the calipers so I gave 'em a textured finish, cast look (using a piece of foam)

nice dude. those look sick! can you get a bigger pic of the whole car though, im dying to see it.

also, what kinda paint did you use and how exactly did you do it..i was thinking i might go yellow with mine.

very clean and professional!

 

looks great, i wanna do mine.

 

Thanks guys, I just got a cheap caliper paint kit from Autozone. I used the same paint on my rear supra brakes to match the front brembo's a while back and it's holding up pretty well. This is just brush on type. I'll post pictures of the whole car after I do the rears.

You can't go wrong with red calipers on a black car Here's my other car.

 

the is250awd has such small calipers.. it would look wierd to paint them

 

Not really because the old IS has about the same size calipers as the 2gen IS, & I owned 1 & painted them as well. . . Here is a couple of more pics. . . Yellow calipers, & EBC green stuff. . . .
