[QUOTE=pushin9,Oct 11 2006, 08:00 AM] Also I have done several track days since I painted the calipers and added the stickers. The high heat had NO effect on the paint or stickers

Hey rajun, what did you use to sand the calipers down like that? So smooth...

I painted mine with an automotive base, then cleared them. No high heat caliper paint needed. I have had them this way for two years without a problem. They still look as nice as they day I first did them. Keep in mind, I wash them with a tiny brush everytime i was my car (every few days)

I matched the color to the NSX oem caliper color.
