Hyper blue caliper pics?

I’m about to paint my calipers, was searching the forums and the internet, and can’t really find any cars with hyper blue metallic calipers. Anyone have any pictures? I’d really like to see some before I do all this work and possibly end up hating it....

I used a high heat primer as a base, than a killer cans galaxy blue, than a high heat clear coat on top of that. Hoping it lasts me the summer like this lol

I got inspiration from the grey zr1 I saw. I didn't want to commit to permanent powder coating. but will be for sure now!

I did a thread on my Hyper Blue when I painted the calipers using G2 blue:

There are a couple of photos showing the end result.

That does look good, always liked the calipers a different color from the body that way they pop.

Are the Camaro and Brembo logos just stickers?

Yes - decals - at least the replacement ones I used after painting the calipers were. They are holding up fine after 18 month.
