Looks good

When i did mine again last week, i got a paint stripping attachment for my air gun and stripped all the old paint off and then cleaned it super good. I take the caliper off the disk, but i leave the lines attached, and tie it off with some string, then i just used the brush and painted it, i did 4 coats of the ceramic paint. First i do the front 2 wheels, then when they are all done and dry, i do the back two, and it always comes out rial nice...


I dont paint the lower bar on them like you did tho...

I had them on mine but after awhile with all the dirt getting on them and stuff, they will just kind peel/fall off.
