Re: PuckPuck's insane 3L build...

Did some painting, have some pics... nothing too special, just a much better looking engine bay and brake calipers...

I still need to hit this with 400 grit, put another thin coat on it, and I may even come around with 600-800 grit afterwards. Finally 2 coats of clear and this part will be done (hopefully today).





here are my brake calipers painted blue. I used the Dupli-Color brush on caliper paint kit. A little more expensive (10$ more), as it comes with a can of brake cleaner (5$ value), but the amount of paint you get, is going to allow me to do all four calipers, and then some. I'm actually considering painting the hubs too. I'm not sure yet, I may actually get Matt or someone to photoshop it, throuh the wheels to see what it looks like. Even if I don't. This paint, is far more durable than the spray on stuff, and gives a better lustre when done. In this pic, they are wrapped in plastic, so overspray from the black engine bay paint won't ruin them.
