Hi all,

I did a search, but couldn't find much . . or maybe I just suck at seraching ..

I'm now interested in getting my calipers painted. Everyone recommended Tommy at musicbox, so I think I am going to go there. However, I'm not sure if the paint he uses can withstand driving heat?

Also, I see lots of people have the "Lexus logo Lexus" decal, are there different ones out there? Also, where can I get one?

Thanks !

 

For decal.... http://www.motogfx.com/lexus/

Heard tommy uses
http://www.duplicolor.com/products/caliperPaint/

Don't know if Duplicolor is good. Most people use http://www.g2usa.com/

 

Semi-thread jack

The real question would be......WHAT COLOR?

Black and Red is always popular. Any other suggestions?

 

Do it yourself!

Here's a good thread by the way:

This is a very easy mod that you can do yourself. If you can jack up a car and take the wheel off you can do this modification.

 

from tommy's !!

 

guess it depends on the color of the car and wheels - I like mine in blue

 

Nice pics Does it withstand heat pretty well? It gets quite hot here in LA and my car is black ..most people recommend different type of paint than the one he uses..

 

its been fine haha seems like day one still

 

Its smoky granite (1G0) paint.

 

Im quoting straight from the dupli-color website here:

I think you will be fine

 

Thanks for your reply !!!

Seems like majority people used the"Lexus logo" decal, has anyone tried the "F-Sport" decal from this website? Another member posted this:

I think if it has good reviews I want to go with this one !!!

 

How remove the caliper cover!? any pic from it!? while open caliper...
Thanks...

 

I'm doing this before installing my new S5:F, ordered some G2 paint ... forgot which thread got the DIY from LOL

 

What color are you going to paint the calipers? Are the SF:F gunmetal color?
