Caliper paint leftover

07BlkGT · July 11th, 2008, 11:49 AM

For those of you that have painted your brake calipers, did you utiize the leftover paint anywhere? I have quite a bit left and it just seems like it may could be used in other areas versus just sitting in the garage?

I ordered from American Muscle but could most likely get it cheaper somewhere else.....was really easy to do though

Powdercoated you say? .. *Taps chin* I knew I should have thought about that...

06VistaGT · July 13th, 2008, 12:25 AM

powdercoating is a good idea or better yet..just get a big brake kit. No idea what to do with the extra paint right now though. Just kinda sitting on a shelf.
