Was that your car? You don't have your plates yet right?
I was there today to watch my friend in the cross fit competition, but my car is asphalt (ironically, my friend thought my car was black too).

Did you buy this? I don't know how it'll affect the quality of the caliper paint (because if it isn't meant for high temps) or if it'll even affect the color that much...

Yeah I picked some up. Not sure either. Maybe will test some heat on it. And by that that I mean a swatch with an oxy torch on it.

Oh, then maybe she saw the black one my friend saw? It didn't have plates, or so I was told. Maybe we've got a third person in this and they're not on the forum yet~

This is with testors "Gloss Red" 1103 enamel paint. Looks more like an orange red, similar to the G2 caliper paint...maybe I should have used the dark red instead :/

The bright red pops out though. A dark red would not stick out as much.
