So...I know this has become the unofficial Brake Caliper Painting page.

So...I have a Red Infiniti....and since my red Calipers came out nice for my Blue Z, I'm painting my G37S a hybrid color. So I wanted G2 Yellow. But the yellow looks really bright. So I thought G2 Gold....but the gold looks too dull. So with my powers combined!!!.....I'm mixing both colors. That's right....I'm premixing both....then mixing the 2 into one. I'm not sure if I want to go all out and go 1+1=2. Or if I want to start with Say Gold....and Mix in the Yellow until desired. The Gold looks very flat compared to the Yellow....so maybe the gloss in the yellow will make it POP more. I like the 1+1 method because I can replicate if wanted/needed.....but why would I need?

So what do you guys think? I know G2 can customize paint for $99 per can (I need 2 =$200) or I can just do it myself and make my own custom color for $70.
