i was thinking about blacking out my front grill and painting the mistu logo on the front and back green. i have removed the other two trunk logos already. i have a black 09 lancer, i was wondering if anyone had any opinions on this, also if anyone can photoshop something like this that would be awesome
maybe a lime green ? xD my calipers are lime greenish.. might do the symbols if you do yours and it turns out good lol
Just plasti dip your front end, thats what most of us did. (Though mine was vinyled the first time around) As for the symbols... black and green or any color really will match. I only have photoshop on my computer and not my laptop so cant do anything for ya at the moment but either way just do what you want. It's your car If I had listened to people my car would be stock.
tbh, you can paint them with pretty much any heat/weather etc.. resistant paint. I went to autozone bought some heat resistant primer. Did 2 coats of that on each caliper.. then did about 3 coats of the lime green heat resistant paint. It was spray paint, not the brush on regualer paint.. But so far its worked out really good, its been about almost 3 months since its been on and theres no chips or anything. oh.. the process for painting em, im pretty sure you know but just in case.. take the tires/wheels off.. (obviously =P) and you can either take the calipers off, or just mask around it. Its probably best if you take em off and then paint em. The primer I used was : "Rust-Oelum High Heat Primer (2000 degrees F)" the color was grayish/silver. It wont show after you put on the coat(s) of paint. the paint was "Dupli Color Engine Enamel" (Grabber Green) had to use engine enamel since I couldnt find any caliper paint that came in green .. (dont really understand what the difference is anyway.. they're both heat resistant) xD I waited about 20-30 mins between coats. I like how it turned out, most people dont like the green xD
