I gotta say, I really enjoyed making this GT350 look pretty sweet with some calipers pop. Can’t afford one yet but can still enjoy working on one LOL

I've watched a bunch of these videos now. This is by far the best approach. Looks awesome. You didn't mention in the video but that was just brakeklean you used to clean them up?

Nice, amazing how such a little thing can add to a vehicle's look for relatively little time and money invested. I just sent some information off to G2 to see if they can match a color for me to do this same process. The advantage I have is that my calipers are all still off the vehicle, so I can do a full job all the way around before I put them on.

@FixItNick 3 жыл бұрын

Do t think they color match I’m not sure, you can do 3 layers easy

Excellent result Nick 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 still cant believe i identified them out of all the brakes there are.... But im quiet obsessive about the GT350 ❤️... Hope work isnt too bad this week for you Nick.

Looks Amazing! What made you go with a brush on instead of a spray application? Also, in the end how smooth was the finish?

@sipzter 3 жыл бұрын

Excellent job. Funny how a resonably small touch up like what you did just puts that extra POP on a vehicle!. Nicely done. Made me think I may try it out on my boring suv...set it off a little bit for decent price and time spent doing it!! Take care man.

Yes totally agree

What you are describing in the beginning is backspacing. Because the wheel is wider, a bigger backspacing occurs in order to tuck the wheel into the fender better. Offset would be how far the mounting area is from the centerline of the wheel's width.

Looks Amazing! What made you go with the brush on instead of a spray on for this application? Also, how smooth was the paint in the end, could you tell I was brushed on?

@FixItNick 3 жыл бұрын

Brush in is thicker, and lasts much longer, also gave to mix with a hardener so it’s more durable than any pray on. Powdercoating would be better. The paint levels itself pretty good

Are you located in the Houston area? I would this job done on my mustang as well.

Nice job although I would not of painted the steel tubing and fittings on the rears. The fittings were probably brass and and steel tubes would go polished up nicely.

Well, I for one am glad you changed the name of the " Eleanor" Mustang. Just found out that they take your car if you use that name. It's copyrighted material. Just when you thought you lived in a " free " country. Ha! Baloney !!

Maybe you did this video for guys that have done this before. Because you did'nt say what you used to "clean" the calipers with. (brake fluid ? )Did you wash all that off with soap and water? Why did'nt you sand off the caliper paint? Where did you get the BREMBO stickers ? Who makes that high heat caliper paint? Who sells it ? Too many questions , not enough answers. Without all the answers , I won't take on a project like this. Without giving us every detail of the project , why put out an instructional video like this at all?
