haha shit theres instructions! lol

I did it the most ghetto way possible:
1. remove wheel
2. mask everything off
3. clean calipers(with water since i didnt have any brake cleaner -_- )
4. apply even coat of caliper paint
5. let dry
6. repeat steps 4-5 2 more times
7. decent looking 5$ cosmetic mod :)

haha I hope they hold up but if not i still have half a can haha
