You're not missing anything. Yet again, I see why northerners are generally happier than southerners. 70s, low humidity and no bugs would euphoric for me. Not to mention that scenery!
haah, these skeeters will eat you like piranha :p

Oh yeah there are areas and certain years they can be bad. Not around here though.

Lol. Yep. I used Dupli-Color caliper paint. Just pull the slide pins out, separate the bracket from the caliper and what I use on the rubber is electrical tape to wrap around and tape them off. It works better for some stuff than masking tape because you can stretch it around small objects. Mask what you can, use electrical tape on what you can’t. Buy a couple cans of brake cleaner and clean then first with that and a brush.

So silver or red ? Or black..?
I thought it would be cool to match -somewhat- the body color but looks like the caliper paint options are pretty standard.

ETA: Saw a poor, neglected Yukon out in the wild the other day, but he has the wheels I’ll be swapping shortly. I’m leaning towards red calipers..

tbh. I don’t think you’ll be seeing much through those wheels anyway. [emoji2955] maybe just silver.

I would go with red. You’ll see them, especially when you’re moving.

for that maybe hit it first with some brasso then like turtle wax chrome polish afterwards

Brasso is a good idea I might actually have some.

Yep 80 grit followed by 120, 240, 400 then self etching primer paint and clear lmao. :signs8:

No!

Surprised the plastic didn't melt or warp from the heat.

Don't think its heat I think the previous tune was just that rich. Plus long tubes no cats and dual 3" doesn't help

Fine fine steel wool like 00 then some neverdull

That was my first thought I think i have some 000 and 0000 steel wool.
