I know what you're thinking. "This guy is a high roller, I want to have his children."

Just kidding. I get to use this baby all weekend. so I decided to paint the calipers on the Z since she was just sitting around. After debating which color I should go with, I said what the hell, can't go wrong with white. This is how they turned out.




I chose White Dupli-Color High Heat paint, Dupli-Color 500 degree clear coat, and 240 grit sand paper for the letters. I thought it was going to look too white at first, but after I cleared them they actually match the pearl white quite well. The Nissan letters on the front were a pain in the ass to sand. After talking to ZXRider, he recommended I use sand paper on the end of a pencil eraser. Took a while, but it worked quite well. It's a nice little project to do when you've got the day off work and are done with finals!

As always, any comments are welcome. Have a good weekend guys!
