Hurry up and paint your HU and get some pics up!

Great idea. How are you going to seal the sub though?

Painted the calipers white and let that fully cure, then cleaned them up, (having removed the wheels)marked roughly what i wanted to paint with a soft pencil.
Then using hafords high temp red paint and a pinstriping brish i carefully freehand painted the outlines then filled it all in.

Lmao mate, thats certainly individual, I aint seen anyone do that before! I dunno if I would do summit like that, but it is very cool nevertheless. You could start a new trend here!!

Better than just a standard one-colour painted caliper lol! I bet it took a while to get the paint as good as it is, you must have the patience of a saint id have messed it up meself lol.

I know, not washed the car in a while, they do get a bit grim, i usually clean the car regularly and do the wheels and calipers too.
