[img] http://albums.photopoint.com/j/View?u=1616008&a=12335572&p=45094557&Sequence=0&res=high[/img] What I did was: clean the calipers with a wire brush (on a drill) clean with paint thinner put a base coat of white heat resistent paint on let dry added svt stickers sprayed two or more coats of heat resistent black on let dry finally sprayed two coats of heat resistent clear lacquer. I love it...

So i left them on there, If anyone is interested in a pair i have two pairs of stickers left. They are a heaver type of vinyl so they wont melt off. If you are interested please email me at: keller@kconline.com Thx _evan ------------------ [marquee]98 E1 SVT[/marquee] #2468 of #6535 No Cat NO Res Mesh Grilles All Around KKM Aluminum Pedals w/ Custom Aluminum Dead Pedal Black Calipers w/ White SVT] SVT Carbon Fibre Sail Panels BNM white faced hvac 35% tint all around Valentine One Pioneer 8200R Alpine 6.5's in doors "Wanna Race That Snazzy Contour?"
