Duplicolor makes a caliper paint kit, and now it's available in spray form, I'm using that.

Dimpled and Curved Slotted, really REALLY nice pattern, you'll like them. Lifetime warranty against warping if I remember correctly.

So any news on this yet, or do you have a tracking number on the rotors lol. I just want to see all of the information consolidated into one source so that we may all take advantage of this mod
Edit: And also red is there anyway we can get the list going on kfx? Or talk to them about getting it set up so we may order
parts while we are waiting for you to get the DIY written up? That way once we have the parts you would be finishing up the
DIY on it at about the same time.

Yup.
My rotors are supposed to be here today, I picked up some Synthetic Valvoline Brake fluid, and ordered my front pads for $70 shipped, Hawk HPS.
I've already got a full DIY written, I just need pics and to verify the process, part numbers and websites listed.
I've got a DIY getting setup for bleeding brakes, brake line replacement, and caliper painting.
I've already started talking with BHurlin to get setup as a dealer with HAWK and to get the sets needed setup so you can purchase most of what you need directly in a kit. Just gotta put pressure on BHurliln to get these done.

Well, mine cost me a bit more as I got brand new calipers, and am doing brake lines with it, not to mention I painted mine.
I'll PM you the info I have when i get a chance at lunch, so you can start ordering your stuff.
Realistically, you should be able to get it all, without the stainless brake lines, for right about $300 using the info I'll give you.
Thta's including paint and shipping.
