Im having my calipers done in red while I have my wheels refurbed so need some brembo caliper decals.

What colour looks best on red calipers? Im thinking Black, white or chrome? Has anybody got any pics of red calipers with decls any of the above colours? Or any other colours?

Also where do I get the decals from? Thanks

Dan

Dan, PM Kingpleb, I think that's where most people get them from. <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Will do. Cheers Che <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

Got his stickers (not on yet), only worried it might be fried on a trackday..? As they are "only" stickers?

Anybody got and pics of red calipers with brembo decals to help me to decide which colour to get <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" />

Per, there are loads of people on here who have the decals from Kingpleb, so if there was an issue I guess it would have come to light by now <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Thanks Che! <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Dan, check out some pictures of my refurbished calipers on this thread. (Red with black decals).

I got my decals from kingpleb, they are very good quality, and should last fine with a coat of lacquer over the top of them.

Per, what you say is possible.

The only time i have seen such a thing happen is when the stickers have just been put on without any lacquer over them. i personally advice to use USautomotives VHT or Flameproof range <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Is it ok to lacquer over the existing lacquer when you apply the decals?

If I had red calipers, I would go for white decals. I've no pics, but have seen this combo on a (Ink Black?) Ferrari Scagiwotsit and they look <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/love.gif" alt="" />

Im getting some in white and some in black from kingpleb so i can hold them up against the caliper to see which i prefer.

Theres a group buy for brembo caliper decals £2 delivered. If anybody is interested put your name down in the group buy section

I would love some chrome decals. Think they would look <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" /> on red or black <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/love.gif" alt="" />

I used the USAuotmotive VHT red paint with silver Brembo decals and the 3 layers of the USAutomotive VHT clear lacquer

Where did you get the silver decals from Munchkin? They look <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/love.gif" alt="" />

Where did you buy the lacquer?

No-one thought about.....

Per, you can buy the VHT clear laquer from these guys - very fast service.
US Automotive

Pag, is this the correct product (clear laquer)?
http://www.usautomotive.co.uk/store/scripts/prodView.asp?idproduct=343
product number VHT-SP115

Per, should we share a can? <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

No, I used this one...

clear VHT paint (product code:VHT-SP730).

I looked at the one you have shown, but it said in the description that it was a matt finish, so I avoided it.

The one I used seems fine & gave a very glossy finish. You should get about 2~3 coats on 4 calipers out of one can.

Dan - I got the decals from someone on here - I think they were originally from ebay though!?!

Yes Alex we should order 1 each in the same box! <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Per and alx. Are you planning to buy the VHT clear laquer? Will this solve the "fried on a trackday" problem <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />?

Tydligen! <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

It looks like US Automotive ship to UK only.
Maybe this company in Stockholm has the same kind of product?
