Josh Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 I used Halfords red paint for the calipers on my Clio but any paint would be fine (high temp if you're braking lots). Paint for the wheels, whatever you want really, then some lacquer on top Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ross C Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 ive painted a few of my mates, aswell as my Supra's callipers with standard red enamel and red hammerite paint. As long as you put on a few coats and buff the callipers down before painting then they'll turn out well enough Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
