(S) GP Red Painted Brake Calipers

Hello everyone, just a quick post to show off my brake calipers that i have finally got around to painting red!

Really happy with the result, didn't take too long either which is a result! Will add more pictures of the full car with new fiat badges and red calipers etc once i've got round to cleaning it!

Are my eyes playing up again or are those alloys white?

Your eyes are not playing up... they are white

Fiat had to recondition them for me as the original silver ones were cracking inside so i asked them to recondition them in white as i was going to originally buy the white O.Z alloys... obviously i no longer need to do that!

You can see them fully in this old thread:

Nice.. white goes really well with the red (and the stripes)..

Cheers

just out of interest waht calliper paint did you use?

It was Halfords own brand for painting brake calipers...

oh right i've used that stuff before and found it too be ****e, might use the more expensive hammerite on my GPS

Hammerite in my experience is the good stuff. Keeps off brake dust better than ordinary caliper paint. Harder wearing aswell etc.

That GP would be twice the car lowered.

That's my next project, novitec lowering springs...

3x the car without the shopping list

Cheers for the comment mate but I've now heard the same one about a million times on here... getting a bit repetitive now... i actually think the same people are commenting with the same thing more than once!

The "shopping list" is there because i like it, it's just personal taste i suppose... alot of people on here have done stuff to their cars which i find hideous lol

fair point, its your car, you can style it how you want.

soz was only kiddng, it actually quite suits it, just not something i would do!
