I'm very happy with how well the flat blue turned out, it looks like it was powder coated. Paint flowed out great and they both came out flawlessly 
Now I hate America? That is a new one to me.

Man, just liked he said they look powdercoated. Amazing! You should set up a group buy because I would love to send you my cover. Would you like to paint a set of wheels and 4 calipers?

Thats good stuff. I think the high-gloss looks great, and I wouldn't dull it out if I were you. Good job!

Thanks for the props! To be honest, it's Dupli-color hi-temp paint, and it was too easy to do a group buy for.
