    Talking Rear brakes

    Hey all, I just painted my rear brakes and put on the Baer Rotors to go with my fronts.
    Thought U'd wanna C some pix.
    Stock is beautiful:



    Prep for paint i hit it good with a wire wheel on my grinder.
    Took off the pad outer bracket, did the piston section still attached.


    Got some high temp paint.
    The only had silver, black or red in they're "caliper" paint.
    So i got this wheel paint, and a clear. 8)

    I painted each with 3 coats of color, then 3 coats of clear, dry 1 day, and reassembe.



    Put it together, remounted (which was kindof a PITA with the ebrake cable right in front of the bottom hole.
