grafxwerks brake decals

Post by cieglo »

Has anyone tried the Pontiac brake caliper decals on the stock GT disc-calipers? Do they work? The description says: "Please note that these decals may not adhere well to unpainted calipers" but does this apply?

Cieglo,I put a set on my base Vibe. They been on a while now and work great. I cleaned my calipers real well, then used high temp caliper paint. It took a couple of days but was worth it. Let the paint dry well before applying the decals, I waited a day between each step so the car sat all weekend. I love the stuff that Ryan sells, Jim M.BTW this was done down in Georgia and the temps were day 75 and night 50 FYI

Those white-on-white wheels look great. Thanks for the tip.

Dude, those wheels look incredible. Did you just have them painted? That's an option I hadn't even thought about. I've got the same wheels as you, but I kinda' wanted some gunmetal ones.~ Z600

Hey NoMerits! I just noticed you did this in Georgia, so I assume you're living there. Whereabouts? I'm in N. GA, in Rome ('bout 1hr north of Atlanta). We could be neighbors! (relatively speaking) ~ Z600
