Handz Rear Brake Replacement + More

[SRT Handz]

So I did this a while back, just didnt post up about it.

So, My brake had this weird feeling coming from the rear. I had a feeling something was up, so i took the wheel off to find out one of my rear brake calipers was locked up at the Slider pins. They were rusted clean. All attempts (even with a torch) to remove the pins failed, So i bought a re-man'd caliper. Since I am OCD about my car, I did the other side at the same time. The parts store ended screwing up and only charging me for 1 caliper for I got the second for free.

Brand New (old) Calipers!!!

Since RotorPro is VERY close to my house, i drove over to richard and got some new Slotted rotors for the rear!!!

Here is the finished product after a few coats of black paint + Clearcoat

Also replace my Totally worn rear ISOs with new Poly Ones!!

Finish product!!! Next: Paint Wheels Wells!!

Nice work Handz, people that truly care about their Mustangs paint things like calipers and rotor hats. Looks excellent

Looks awesome! I also painted my rotor hats when I did my front and rear brakes, but I didn't quite paint enough so I have a small ring of rust that looks like crap. Time to redo I guess...

I also painted my rotor hats and splash guards when I put on my drilled and slotted rotors. I also repainted and cleared my calipers in silver, it looks the best I thought with sonic blue.

We did the same on my buddies black car, but painted his calipers black also.

nice work...i always love to see things about your car

are your rear tires rubbing your tailpipes?

Looks great, as usual!

I painted my calipers red a little while back, and love it. Kinda sets the plain silver/chrome look of my car off. I scratched up the rear calipers when changing my brakes last weekend, so (now know how easy it is to take off the calipers) I may take them back off and do them really well. Same with the fronts when I replace those in the near future.

Does someone around have a write-up about painting the wheel wells? I almost know there is, but for some reason I can't seem to find it.
