Paint Calipers and rear drums...
#6
how long do you leave the calipers sitting with the wheels off before you can get going? I don't want to paint them and be stranded for the whole day. I'm guessing maybe an hour would be fine?

Why's that? Looks?
I'm a fan of colored calipers, appropriately colored calipers I should add. Very racy appearance. Not at all a fan of painted drums though.
You can get Mugen and Spoon front calipers in blue. Why not paint?

But to each his own, Ive just been around a long time and have seen that most people always in the long run wish they had stepped away from the paint can

its because they see how bad it looks and realize what the hell they were thinking.

here they are..... have them painted for a week now and I don't regret it, they look nice to me, a did my wife's pontiac vibe first for practice cause she wanted to painted them, they look little rusty, they looked nice to me so I did mine... had to wait 24 hours when I did it.

Because painting calipers is being a poser IMO, if you have a BBK or spoon calipers then colored is awesome. Just like on my STI Gold Brembos looked great, but I would laugh my ass off if some kid painted his stock brakes gold on a base Impreza.

I painted the stock calipers red on my 05 blue WRX and got many compliments from serious car people and lay people alike. Its a personal-taste thing bobo so right back 'atchya.
