Painted calipers and decals 4.6is
 

Just put on my decals and was wondering what you guys think. I like them but they might be to much.
Thanks
(special thanks to Chile1 for sending me the decals)

nah they look really good

Not too much at all. I like 'em.

They do look good. Nice job.....:thumbup:

Looks good.

What did you you use to paint your calipers?

is it me or are they supposed to be facing the other way? like inwards...

i think its upside down

I was just thinking that... otherwise they look great!

Yeah the other caliper they are faceing in. The problem was the decals were the exact same so they both could not face in un less i put bmw going up on one side and bmw going down on the other. This way they both say bmw going down. Maybe i did it wrong but still looks hot!
Thanks guys

looks like you are missing a lug

people will only look at the calipers one side of the car at a time. they should all be facing inward.

nevertheless, good job.

Me i like everything,

But just a question about your arcs around the wing, they don't seems to be like the originals.....

A i wrong ??

The odd one is probably the locking lug.

Looks good...I wonder if the high heat dispersed through the cal will allow
for the decals to stay on?

md beat me to the punch.....
my concern would be heat and the adhesive on the decal as well

imagine you had one caliper with a b w decal
and another one with mw

;-)

They are made for calipers so they can with stand high heat, the degree is much hotter than the calipers will ever get. If that does happen i can just peel them all off. Not a big deal, but untill then they do look nice!

Most paint won't hold up to the heat as well. I've used the high heat paint for headers, but haven't painted the calipers yet. Wondering what paint might be best for this application. Any brands?

Agree with others that it isn't about whether the writing goes up or down, it should be read clockwise. Look at the writing on the sidewall of the tire. It is the contrast with the tire name and the BMW label that looks wrong, at least to me.
