Worst winter in years around here in the Mid-Atlantic states, and I just got a winter storm watch notification in effect until Feb. 13 at 2200 hours.

I had my calipers painted red today. Really happy with how it looks. Next is powder coating the rims black.

looks good, did you leave them on or remove the brake calipers?
Have you thought about doing red details over the black piston badges?, maybe with the same paint?

@Chimera Thanks! The calipers were left on and painted. As far as the black piston decals, I think I may just leave them all black. I don't have the talent to be super tedious haha. Plasti-Dipping those two emblems was a b*tch in itself!

Hopefully it'll be wrapping up soon, but there are more storms coming this week. I got the winter set mainly to have next winter, due to the experiences from this one. Just putting them on to break them in until it gets warmer, then back to the XXRs with factory rubber.
