1.jack up car 2. take off wheel 3. mask off brake pads 4. paint
pretty much in a nutshell. Its more of a time consuming thing than difficulty thing.

As far as paint, I had a lot of engine/brake paint left over from the high school days when we used to do that stuff, and i just used that. I think it was dupli-color. Whatever the stuff you can pick up at the auto store. i'll find out tomo.

:thumbup: Looks good. I've had a caliper paint brake kit for over a year now and haven't got around to doing mine yet. You just gave me inspiration though. Mine will be silver as well when I'm done.......

yeh i did parts of the rotor and the brake shield so that everything would look new.

hahah.... i remember that post. u provide the strippers for entertainment during the install and u gotta deal. hahaha....i'll give u some guidance only because if i broke anything on your ride, i'd feel bad leaving skidmarks on ur driveway when i speed away :lmao:
