DIY Caliper

[bmwtele]

Ok So on Saturday I had so much fun :excited: replacing the pads and disks, I had to do some thing else.

So on the web I go, :thinker: and research Caliper painting etc. Now Since I do not have a fancy M3 :cursin: etc. I wanted to just do something subtle that does not show off my small studio :clap: ....Ermmm Caliper.

So I took 2 hours today took them off and cleaned them and then added the paint. What do you guys think? Also did a second small Mod for 2010. Could not find Italian Flag so decided to go Local.

I think the change is small but subtle and Nice. Do you agree?

I like the calipers colour, not anything too radical, when I get back to my dad's shop a week from now I'm doing the same, the hubs look hideous... I'll probably go a gun-metal on the calipers, and just matte black on the hubs. +1 for DIY! :rollsmile:

Yep, rusty hubs are just not cricket! So the nice shiny disks that I fitted on the E46 are now looking a bit sad... :nonono:
