It looks like he painted the calipers black. Shame that when the BMW was taped over it wasn't so clean of a job.

OOhhhhhhhhh.......Hotness. I wanted to paint mine red, but I don't want to alter the stock pieces so drastically. Black is cool though.

hit the nail on the head, I wasn't too happy about that...I will probably get them redone at some point but they look great when your not looking close up at them.

I would have used clear tape (not sure if thats what you did). I would think that it would make it easier to cut out.

I was just gonna ask how you painted it. It looks like they were powder coated.
