Love the yellow, hate the reflective.... looks like you trying to hard imo.

However, pretty cool to wrap calipers. Didn't know that was a thing, any worries on heat and how the wrap would hold up against it + brake dust fading the yellow?

Trying to hard for what? lol. It looks alot better in person, its not as bright as the picture makes it seem to be. And yeah its rated up to 2,000 degrees, 3 year warranty, brake dust/sun does not fade it. Rodwraps one of the best in Miami, check them out on instagram, great work at a great price.

Thanks! I like the way the red reflects alot more than the yellow because it looks like lava haha. But the yellow looks alot better during the day with the color of my car than the red.

What do they look like up close? I can't imagine they stretched the reflective film much. Lots of seams?

Yeah i know Rodwraps, worked with them on my previous GTI.

What i meant by trying to hard is that they already are yellow they grab plenty of attention this way. Dont see the need to make them reflective for even further "look at me" You have a camaro it'll grab plenty of attention already. Its just my opinion.

I'll give Enrique a call and get more info on wrapping my calipers if theres non reflective. I been wanting to put my brakes yellow or orange but dont want to loose my orignal red.

Yeah give him a call, I would imagine he has non reflective stuff. And as for the reflective being too much, I think its something you have to see in person, its really not as reflective as the picture makes it look.

Well, that's certainly different. I'd be strangely curious to see what red looks like.

The red glows an orangish color, like a lava color.
