Atlantis Blue Calipers

crazyhorse02 · 07-20-2017, 11:34 AM

My front driver side caliper got a pretty bad rock chip. Figured to get a new color/style. Turned out amazing. Best picture for right now, but the new and brighter color really enhances the overall look of the car.

Sick! Why did you go with the Brembo sticker?

TheHouseWon · 07-20-2017, 01:27 PM

Great color! Looks sharp. Is it powder coated or ceramic?

Because it looks better?

Atlantis looks hot. Good color choice.

I figured there's enough M badging on these things. Looks better with the brembo label imo

Love your color as well. I had narrowed down to Atlantis, that lambo orange pearl or a light mint green.. obviously went with Atlantis

All I have right now.. pretty crappy. Will get another asap

Also.. since the rear caliper is.... let's just say "crap". Had it painted black.

Looks badass I think I prefer the brembo logo over the M after seeing this!

Maverick997 · 07-21-2017, 10:00 PM

I assume this required removal of the calipers, was this done by the paint shop or did you do the wrenching...?....looks very sharp

Tanners Customs in Kansas City. Top notch shop for custom paint and such. Couple day turnaround while getting the mpss 4s mounted. And yes, complete removal of calipers for paint.

They can do it without removal if using a smaller airbrush style paint gun. Also specify a preference for a "stencil" logo instead of a sticker if possible. Maintains a smooth face on the caliper.

Nice paint job! Out of curiosity, where did you get the Brembo stickers from? Did you have them clear coat the calipers after putting the stickers on?

I believe he stenciled the brembo logo. Here's a close up before they were put back on the car.
