Just Had My Calipers Painted

[Habu]

Whilst getting the rims refinished (local Lexus Centre paying) I thought I'd get the calipers painted professionally by a garage next door. The calipers were fully removed from the car, cleaned off including smoothing down, painted, stickers applied to the fronts and lacquered up before reassembly, bleeding, etc. The finished resut looks good in the flesh with yellow calipers against black rims. The rims needed refinishing as they weren't returning to gloss after being washed. Now they're been respired, re powder coated and lacquered.

Here's the results - taken with the phone and close up on my driveway so don't show then off to their best. Also the photos have some sin highlights on the rims so they look marked or scuffed. They're not, it's just the photo.

Nice contrast. Looks great.

Decided to give my GS some love over the last 2 weeks which essentially was an intensive clay and wax session. I just love clay and it's awesome on glass too. Here's some pics:
