Red Calipers on Forte Koups

I think going with the same color as your car is good. Red on Red, and Blue on Blue looks nice. Red also looks good on Black, too.

I think blue would look sweet, just like KoupCoupe has.

I've had a red duplicolor kit in my garage for over 6 months and no time to sit down and do the work. It's really easy, just mask off anything that you don't want painted and brush away. Do several coats, but allow each coat to dry (per the instructions) before applying another coat.

I might give my duplicolor kit away and go with the G2 kit as I have had problems with the Duplicolor kit peeling after a year or so. Haven't heard of that happening with the G2 kits.

try n color match, or at least keep it blue

I''ll look into the G2 kit, then. Thanks. You guys are great on this forum.

My friend at work used the gold G2 paint to do his calipers last week and they came out great.



He mentioned that it only took 1/2 of the paint to put 2 coats on all 4 corners. He wish he had split the paint in 1/2 before mixing in the hardener. Then he would have had some for a back up. It does have a shelf life before mixing. I have a couple other items planned when I do mine...

I guess I'll order up the Red G2 paint, and remove the plastic inserts while the rims are off.

If I were you, I prefer to try blue color, just an color.
