Lincoln Continental black painted caliper with logo

[NicTLg]

I've done a few upgrades since purchasing this car.

This is one of many.

StopTech vented / drilled rotors and carbon ceramic brake pads.

Painted calipers with Black Label / Lincoln star logo.

**Second Pic is a mockup to show what it looks like without the wheel in the way. I'll get a better Pic when they swap my wheels next week.

I had it done. I'm not talented enough (nor would I risk creating a mess) to do this. The service usually costs $240 - 500 if you search around for the deals.

After he grinded (Dremeled) the surface a bit to make it smoother, he added 3 coats of black caliper paint, then baked it on with a butane torch. Then he added the logo, and 3 coats of clear coat / lacquer, and baked that again with the torch to make sure it was super dry and solid / hardened before I drove the car. The whole process takes a few hours if they are being careful and detailed.

BTW, for the logo, he said he had a printer that created basically a vinyl decal. I'm sure you could find someone on Etsy or eBay that could custom make it for you if you send them a file. Even if it's not perfect, they can use it to create a vector image that can be printed. (I sent him the logo I've attached here)

Better pics with the Black Label wheels. (it's been raining here, so don't mind the wet wheels)
