i just ordered the G2 gold paint kit and PoLaK's RX8 stencils I plan on making black. I also want to polish and de-bur my calipers to make 'em smoother.

Anyways; looking good!

nice i have the same set but ended up using copper because i didnt wanna do it bright. on a plus side my calipers match my amber signals lol.

Looks good. I'm gonna do my calipers in red to keep with a red/black theme. Not original, but easier then changing the interior lighting.

very nicely done, im going to repaint my calipers thi weekend. Might aswell get rid of the rust too

Don't forget to do the dust shields! You'll be happy you did. I spent the extra money and painted mine black...and my calipers are blue.

can someone post some pics of their painted rear rotors that cover the rusted areas?

I assume you are referring to the rotor hubs? If so then it is really easy. Jack the car and put it on stands. Pull the wheels and clean the hubs with a brake cleaner and a wire brush and then apply high temp paint.

Check my thread for some pics of the hub and calipers painted.

yea i spent a while with the wire brush but it wasnt doing the trick, so im gonna go ahead and buy brake cleaner. im just worried if i paint a little over more then needed. is that alright?

Mine were very rusty so I painted them. The brake cleaner will not help remove the rust. It is to remove all the dirt and grime so the paint has a clean surface to adhere to.

damn then i have to brush extra hard then. lol and this time ill take my wheel off! (yea im lazy now)

I noticed on another thread that you had these listed as a form of mod to your car. Question I have is what site will show an up close pic of these 2 items? I'm having a hard time trying to see the differences from the stock and these after market items.

Another question is the bass speaker box you have listed.. Can you post a pic of it and do the back seats go down so you can fit a box or get a box in the trunk?

I like the look. I have always noticed the Z 's and G35'S with the copper calipers. How did you get that color. Was it called nissan copper? I'm thinking of copper fpr my White 8. Thanks

llzjayarzll

i went to a paint shop and they handed me a book with all the car brands colors and told me to pick any amd that they could get it done for me =p

i went straight to the nissan section, but now that i think of it maybe i shoulda checked out lambourghini haha.
