Haahaha it just fell off? Lol...
But nah, I'm def sure its going to be ready soon. My car is completely put back together and just need to check for bald spots and alignment.
A random question: Anyone going to SEMA? I was thinking about going but there's no way I'm going to be able to afford hotel accomodations T.T

for those of you coming saturday, i would get here about 10ish, and BYOP.... bring your own paint.
here are things i would bring if i were you:
Brake cleaner..... paint does not stick to dirty calipers. try to avoid carb cleaner as it leaves a resedue. brake cleaner does not.
Paint.... get what you want, but I would go with VHT caliper paint. it's high temp, and seems to work fine on my car, no fading or staining yet.
someone might want to bring some tape, i dont think we will need 4 rolls of it, but some would be nice.
i have some newspaper, i think I have enough.

Lesper, let me know what you find. If I can get some time tonight, I will look through the threads here on the forum and see what techniques/hints, products people may have.

Sounds like you guys are having a party ^^
Just wondering... anyone going to the banquet after Seven Stock? It's 40 dollars... so I might just go get a bite to eat elsewhere afterwards...

I don't doubt you...I'm just doubting myself right now. I'm questioning myself if painting my calipers is something I really want to do at this point. I guess I'm struggling with the finish....I want something that looks more like metal. That's why I was thinking about the Metalcaste product. I am still coming over Saturday and I'll be bringing paint (and Mountain Dew)....but I just am questioning whether it will look good. I guess you would have to see my car (post new mods) to know what I am talking about. I'm sure you guys will point me in the right direction.
Oh....and new avatar alert

Hahah.... another day without my car. Wow. This is really getting on my nerves.
They said it'd be done before last week. Then they said middle of this week. Now they are saying before this weekend.
Jeez, I'm going to go insane.
Oct22 for solo2? Sounds fun!!! ^^
