O.K, I get bored often on the look of my car, so I try to think of and do thing's to try to improve the look, or should I say, cure my state of boredom at that particular time, well this time I decided to paint my brake calipers and rear end, check it out:

Thanks for the possitive feed back.
I've gotta say, you "Avatar" picture of your car is nice! I like that that vette generation!!!
It seems to me that your doing a bit of "boredom busting" your self by the look's of your beautiful machine!!
 
looks good!

i've been thinking about doing my calipers. what kind of paint did you use? did you remove the calipers when you painted them?
 
hey man,
you should give me the 52mm throttle body and let me polish it real quik before you put it on,paint looks good.

(as the theme song from Jeoperdy play's in the back ground).........
...................................................................................................................O.K, it's Rust-oleum brand, "Hard Hat" Safety red Industrail coating Paint.
I didnt take the calipers of, but I did take off the wheel's and sprayed some paint into a cup, and used a paint brush to put it on, as I did with the rear end also.
 
I like the calipers....but the rear end......uh no.
Good job of it though.

Yeah, I can understand, though the pictures just doesnt do the rear end justice, it does really look a lot brighter and nicer underneath then the pictures show, this color red really is bright and sharp, in fact I'm really seriously thinking of painting the whole car the exact same color.
Thanks to my good buddy "Hawaii 5-Lo" for the paint.
But I'm glad that you like the wheel calipers though my friend.

Man, Ive got to say, that is one nice automobile that you have there.
I can only wish that my car would look as good as yours does, it won't anytime soon.
It's gonna take one heck of a lot of "Bored" day's to equal what you've acomplished.
Nice job on your project my friend, my hats off to you.
