I've been looking around the internet for guides to painting calipers, and they seem to vary a lot and none of them are for celicas specifically. I was wondering if anyone on here who has done it has any method(s) that they feel works well. Thanks!

P.S I dont have a whole lot of experience so far with cars so a simple method would be appreciated biggrin.gif

you know... that is what i had in my mind, before looking at this thread...

but i want to paint them either black or read,,,
and paint the letters TRD or CELICA,,, but i dont know if
that is going to be really hard,,i have seen the calipers that say celica,, but thats another story cuz they come like that.
has someone done it like that?
or am i getting involved in a disaster?
