thanks, they're going on my Wife's G. i plan on eventually putting up a thread just for her car too. it wasn't that expensive at all really. all you need;

- brake cleaner

- 400 grit sandpaper

- masking tape

- self etching primer

- caliper paint, i used Duplicolor Torque & Teal engine enamel and added Duplicolor Effects for sparkle

- high heat Brembo decals

- caliper clear coat, very high heat

...and time, lol

Did you add clear coat over the decals Mark? I really like that color. I was thinking about doing that color (project mu color) in my engine bay one day.

I dub the Brembo Mu's lol

nah, i was planning on it but i started reading a few people's experiences w/evo brembos saying that the caliper heat pretty much burned the decal on anyway and wasn't totally unnecessary.
