    do any of you guys know where I would be able to find "Glossy Black" caliper paint???

    Folia tec makes a kit for painting calipers. I believe VHT does one also. I painted over some RED VW calipers with their Black paint and it went on nicely. It is VERY toxic though, so do it outside in warmish weather only unless you have proper respirator.

      Can you paint the calipers w/o taking them off? If you cant, what replacement parts would you need? BTW, what about factory colors. Has anyone color matched their calipers?

        I think Im leaning towards the "glossy black" cause before, I was thinking...red :nixweiss: ...but, I keep thinking that Black would be nice and subtle but look nice with new rotors. and PLUS not everybody has black calipers. Mostly red and yellow. I think Definetly Black! :thumbsup: IF I COULD EVEN FIND A GLOSSY BLACK CALIPER PAINT?!!! :banghead:

          Desmo beat me to it! G2 glossy black



          2k -- G2 says you don't have to take them off, but they need 24 hours to dry.

            What about rust? Mine are almost 100% rust on the outside of the callipers? Should I just paint over them, or try to remove the rust?
