May 29, 200619 yr Well, our task for the day involved changing the brake pads on my father's Bonneville and while we were at it, we decided to paint the calipers red a la GXP cars. So...how's it look?
May 29, 200619 yr Looks great, Fly! Did you get that Duplicolor caliper paint...I've heard that stuff is pretty good. Any plans to do the back, or are those drums?
May 30, 200619 yr Sweet! All's needed now is a set of Mille Miglia rims and a slight drop to complete the look.
May 30, 200619 yr Red against silver --complimented by the red Pontiac Arrowheads-- couldn't look bad.
May 30, 200619 yr Looks good, Fly! When I do mine (I'm hoping this week), I'll post pics in this thread.
May 30, 200619 yr Cool, I wouldn't mind painting mine, but I think I'll just get 2005 OEM brakes when mine wear out.
May 30, 200619 yr Good look. Very racy. I like huge red Buick finned drums on a 1930s fenderless Hot Rod with Firedome power even better. Esp. flat black with red pinstriping and steel rims on whitewalls.
June 1, 200619 yr I've thought of painting the calipers on my Impala, but I don't know what color to go with....the car is black with a tan interior with gold pinstriping and silver Impala badges on the doors and trunk lid. So dunno what color to do the calipers in.
June 4, 200619 yr Yeah, I guess I could get the calipers off and spray and clear them just like I did the badges on the front doors and trunk lid, although they are already a silvery aluminum color.
