What did you do to / for your E53 today??

I do have to do my calipers though. They are corroded. I was planning on removing them, wire brushing everything, and get a few coats on there so it looks smooth. I dunno if I should do it in Black or red. I'd do yellow if I had black wheels.

i would say Plasti dip...but i painted mine....

get the one that has that Clear coat added already...so that it doesnt get dirty and all the dirt just washes off....

g2 or the duplicolor stuff in the box will be glossy, more so on g2 but its 40 bucks. and you have to do all 4 calipers at once you only have a few hours to work with!

I'll be doin mine soon, the calipers are corroded. I also bought new anti rattle clips since mine are rusted and the last thing i want is rusty clips on freshly painted calipers!

Painting stock calipers any color beside black or silver is rice.

Hmmm... Anybody need four new Bosch O2 sensors + tool? I got the hookup on an inspection sticker yest so my X is good now and I'm not interested in wasting my Saturday under my X getting dirty. My pocket is $100 lighter tho...
