Love the look you created there, OP.

With the G2, you do not/not use clear once painted. It's on their web site.

Johnny's look awesome. Did you use a stencil for the Camaro lettering and spray the white?

Didn't someone on here find a website vendor was offering to powdercoat and clear factory calipers, with a core charge for you to return your originals? I'd like to see what red looks like on the Hyper Blue.

I have a RS but bought SS take off calipers. Do y'all think it's worth powder coating or should I paint them instead?

If they're not installed then I would VHT spray paint them all day long. Will have a great finish and be a lot cheaper

If you just want look, the VHT spray results would be your affordable solution. If you want them to be durable, spend the extra to have them powdercoated.

Thanks for the advice. I think I'll get it powder coated

How is the paint on the calipers holding off after almost two years?

I'm planning on painting my calipers with G2, adding the factory appearance stickers then spraying with VHT clear coat. This should look awesome, any reason not to? ie: adhesion between VHT and G2? Thanks!
