Here's a pic of one of the calipers before I put the wheels back on. :cheers:
That looks fantastic. I thought the base red they had was too bright. I wanted a deeper, darker red. That's much closer to what I want.

Just ordered the RR kit.

Did those with the G2 find their one can of cleaner was enough to clean all 4 calipers? Got about 14.5k on the car. They don't look dirty, but I was thinking of getting an extra can and a brush just to be certain.

The one can was enough for me. :cheers:

I see a lot of people using the Brembo stickers on non-PP vehicles. I'm just wondering if there's a reasoning behind it. Not knocking anyone, just genuinely curious as I don't want to leave them blank and plain but also don't want to feel disingenuous since they aren't Brembos so I'm not sure what route to take. I've seen the ones that say Mustang or Ford but not sure I like the few I've seen.
I just ordered the G2 kit this morning (I'm going with yellow and fingers crossed that it ends up looking good on my vehicle).

If you have brembos go for it .if not don't do it its misleading ..i have the performance pack ecoboost they did not come with brembos. Alot of people think just because ther big calipers they are ...but ther not Brembo .

I always wondered why just the Brembo sticker.. Why not Baer, or Wilwood, etc. Why does everyone want to knock off Brembo...LOL

I think its because they actually put Brembo's on some of our cars. Lots of folks also think the 4 piston calipers are Brembo's.

I admit, I did it. :shrug:

The red was just too much without something to break it up. I couldn't think of anything else I liked.

Plus I figured Ford has been putting 5.0 badges on cars for years that are 4.9L. :lol:

Thanks for the replies. Guess I'll keep looking at options. I just want some black lettering for contrast.

I was thinking of going with DIB calipers on my DIB mustang. I tried searching for that look, but I couldn't find anything.
