Any good NJ places for brake caliper painting?
Hey guys, I've been wanting to get my calipers painted for awhile now. I know it's and easy job, but I don't trust myself lol. I asked pep boys todays when I got some new tires and they said they wouldn't do it. A few friends said they'd do it for around 60$, I don't mind paying at all, but I don't want it to come out like crap. I'd rather have someone who has done it before do the job. Anyone know a good place or friend in Nothern Jersey that'd do a good job?

i actually have a ton of paint left over from mine (red for the caliber, black for the inside rotor rust and dust shield), i could bring it plus whatever brushes i have left in addition to caliber cleaner and so forth.

FYI, realize that many of us live in small, city apartments, park on the street, and have no garage to keep tools, ramps and other equipment in. No place to store them and no place to work on the car. So we can't change our own oil, install aftermarket equipment or paint our brake calipers.

I seriously doubt the dude is still around the forum.
Just about any body shop can do this kind of work.
