stevest202, how did you get the 'celica' text onto the caliper? I expect it's not a sticker because it would just peel off with the heat.

I did a really dodgy job of painting my calipers with a brush whilst they were still attached at the start of the year. The paint I used wasn't high temp stuff (Dad said it would be ok but I've since learned not to trust him when it comes to aesthetic stuff) and it's starting to come off so I want to do it again by totally removing all of the calipers and spraying them with some high temp gloss. The celica text would really finish it off nicely
