Caliper detailing.
 
Just overhauled my brake calipers and thought i'd paint the writing white similar to some nissin calipers ive seen. I'm pleased with the results :D

i'd do it in red personally if i was gonna do it at all. But then i like black n red as a combo if you didnt guess from my bike, lol.

Edit: actually forget that, just looked at pic again. Polished forks n rims? Then sand down the top of the raised writing on callipers and go for brushed metal look on em. That'd work a treat :)
