I know this has been discussed prior, but I think its better just to paint your calipers yourself. I painted mine red (and highlighted the NSX letters in white and they look today, 2 years later, every bit as good as those photos of the powder coated calipers. While it took a Sunday to complete the task, I didnot even disconnect the brake lines....merely covered the wheel well in vapor barrior and rested the caliper (less the pads)on top of the rotor. The product I used came from a local performance shop...in a spray can (cost $12.00 CDN), called VHT Brake Caliper,Drum & Rotor (its rated at 900 degrees F) in SP-731 Racing red (although they have all colours) and is made by PJH Brands, out of Scottsdale Arizona. The letters, I merely painted by hand using a auto touchup laquer paint tube. The red had to be re-sprayed 10-15 times and some spots had to be touched up by hand until you achieved a perfect finish.

[QUOTE="CFNSX, post: 336656, member: 7020"] I know this has been discussed prior, but I think its better just to paint your calipers yourself. I painted mine red (and highlighted the NSX letters in white and they look today, 2 years later, every bit as good as those photos of the powder coated calipers. While it took a Sunday to complete the task, I didnot even disconnect the brake lines....merely covered the wheel well in vapor barrior and rested the caliper (less the pads)on top of the rotor. The product I used came from a local performance shop...in a spray can (cost $12.00 CDN), called VHT Brake Caliper,Drum & Rotor (its rated at 900 degrees F) in SP-731 Racing red (although they have all colours) and is made by PJH Brands, out of Scottsdale Arizona.
