Looks very sweet, love the way the wheels go with the grille inserts. I bet red calipers would look beast on that too

I did mine with a cheap dollar brush and a can of plasticote. It was on clearance at that so it cost me $1.90 and an hour in time. Left the break gear on the car, brushed it on 2 coats and it looks great. I didn't take my wheels off though, (I was very careful, no drips) and there's a few bare spots on the drums that you can only see if you're looking for them.Autozone has caliper paint too.
