I decided to do this today. When I opened the box, I noticed only the paint, reactor liquid, and brake cleaner had come in the box. No instructions, mixing stick, paint brush or decal. I was pretty mad but made due with what I had. I would have called the seller but my gf got it for me and I didn't want her to know about the poor side of it. Other than not having everything, it turned out great.

G35 sedan w/ too much money in mods
I had the same experience with them a month ago. I e-mailed the seller and they sent me the missing stuff that day and I got it in 2 days.

I was very happy with the paint, until I installed new pads and rotors and bedded in the pads. The rears yellowed significantly!! Weird that the fronts were unaffected, I would have expected them to generate more heat than the rears. I'm just going to buy a can of Duplicolor and re-do the rears.

Very nice, my caliper paint is sitting on my workbench waiting for me to have my wheels re-polished then I can accomplish both jobs at once. Since you can't drive your G for 24 hours after applying the paint this project should work out well time wise....

Drowe303 - what were you missing and are you referring to the G2 paint kit? If I remember correctly, that only includes a little brush, paint, activator and brake cleaner.

With a year and half and 15k miles having passed by since I started this thread, I might as well update. So far none of the paint has flaked off and the decals are still perfect.

This is awesome! I was just looking at my stock calipers with disgust just the other day. I guess I'll be setting aside a weekend to hook this up.
