PLEASE! It is VERY important that this area is not used for the discussion of technical issues with your Stinger. This section is for posting about regional-specific things like Stinger clubs, events, local vendor or dealer recommendations, KiaStinger.com member sightings, etcetera... In other words, I do NOT want people to need to scour through several different sections to find answers about their heads up display. That's why there's a section dedicated specifically to discussions like that. THANK YOU!
Originally posted on Facebook, thought forum members here would be interested to see this Aussie Neon Orange StingerGT have it's brake calipers painted and new wheels fitted. Enjoy.
Maybe the logic was that they wouldn't have to mess with bleeding, resetting calipers, etc...? Might be faster, but seems like the time you'd save in leaving them on the car would be offset by the time you have to spend taping off the whole car to keep it from getting overspray while you painted...
Painting calipers on the car is generally done when there are other compromises at play. It just doesn't seem that's the case for these guys!
Painting calipers on the car leads to an incomplete job. There are surfaces on the caliper that you can't get to when they're mounted, it's hard to clean the calipers properly to get a good bond with the paint/etc. It's honestly easier to do a proper job of it by removing them and spraying them in a booth (or just hanging somewhere away from other stuff) if you have the right gear (and they don't seem to have any shortage of gear) than to mask the car up as they've done (and they did a good job of masking off, I am not questioning that!).
