What kind of paint did you use? Just standard high temp paint? How is it holding up?

WTF? DRIVE GIRL DRIVE! ;D Did you sand and primer the calipers before you painted it? or did you spray them as is? And how did you get that logo on it? Looks very nice ;)

used high temp caliper black paint with engine high temp clear coat (to keep the stickers on).. didnt sand it however I cleaned the calipers 1st with rim degreaser/ wheel cleaners and cleaned it off well 1st...
should hold decent... when I start driving. its a stupid situation totally not m fault.. but whatever not to get into it. I lost it for 6 months. but I will be getting it back december 30th and looks like no criminal charges *crosses fingers*..
cheers,
