CAN U POST A DIY HOW TO THREAD , I WANT TO DO THE SAME THING , and was it hard to apply the decals ?

[SiouxFallsG35]

^ I haven't formulated a complete DIY but many details are already included in this thread if you read in in it's entirety. The decals come with proper application techniques, but it's all very elementary. Peal top layer of paper off the decal, press onto brake, peal back layer off, press bubbles out.

I used the same kit for my brakes as well, nice work.

I was considering doing this until I get BBKs but after seeing it.... I do not like it at all.

I know alot of newer vehicles have their calipers painted a sort of silverish/goldish metallic color from the factory... may go this route instead.

Nice and Clean. Reminds me that its time for a new coat. I did Red caliper paint almost 3 years ago and its time........

i just bought my decals and red g2 paint. i'm excited and can't wait to get started on this project. thanks for letting me know where to get the parts.

Could you paint the part between the rotor and where the wheels bolts on to the hub. The grayish/brown area. When the light hits the side of my car it stands out and shows how rusty looking it is. Just wondering if this paint would work for that too. Thanks

Yes, you can paint the rotor, expect for the shiny part. My calipers are painted black, and painting the grayish/brown area black also (same paint) completes the look. Do as you would for the caliper - wire brush clean, brake cleaner finish. I masked off the rotor(the shiny part) as you don't any over spray on this area. I went right up to the brake sweep area. If you brush on, you don't have to worry about over spray. Rotors are easy to remove(but not necessary) if you have the calipers off anyway.
When everything is dry, I then use a cooper anti seize brush on gel between the wheels and the rotor -

That looks fantastic. Definitely putting it on my to-do list once spring rolls around.

Thanks for the links to the products, too!

I'm right there, it's just a touch too busy for me. And maybe put the INFINITI letters closer together? I realize that would probably meant cutting them apart first...but overall, really nice result, it's definitely on my to-do list as well.
