[QUOTE="96dreamer, post: 16534758, member: 52560"] While it was put away for the winter I decided to upgrade the front brakes to the ATS brembos. Picked up a used set off ebay, got both for under $100 shipped. [ATTACH=full]1675689[/ATTACH] I sand blasted them to prep for high temp vht paint. [ATTACH=full]1675690[/ATTACH] My plan was to paint black, install a decall, paint red and remove the decal then clear coat over everything. [ATTACH=full]1675691[/ATTACH] Unfortunately that did not pan out and when I removed the red decal it pulled some of the red paint with it so I went to plan B which was just paint red with a high temp decal on top. Coated in red after being baked. [ATTACH=full]1675693[/ATTACH] Installed on the car with the black decals [ATTACH=full]1675694[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1675695[/ATTACH] When getting the car ready to get out in the spring I finally removed the painters tape that had been on the core support for way to long. Unfortunately it took a good amount of gloss black with it. After trying unsuccessfully to rattle can it black it was suggested by a friend that I paint it wrinkle to match a few of things in the engine bay and to make it a little more durable. I ended up with this and was pretty happy with the result. [ATTACH=full]1675696[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]1675697[/ATTACH] Late in January I also upgraded the tow rig.
