Looks good bro. May have to do mine now. I have a brain fart now, so you have to bleed brakes for this?

don't hate me brother, but i gotta be honest... its a Denali, a classy ride. By painting those calipers blue, it looks very "ricer" to me now. Just can't dig it...

Not everyone gonna like it, However, I dig it. Yes since the Calipers were removed, they have to be bled

That is a bright blue! I'd have to side more with supercharged on this but if it's your thing and you like it then that's all that matters :waytogo:

Thanks for all the comments...I think it looks good...i like it, and i know people don't have the same taste as me but its all good....everyone has their own style....and yes i did have to bleed the brakes because i took them apart instead of masking them off on the truck...I think i have the modding bug...can't wait to get my drop done...

I'm impressed you did the correct way and removed them for paint. You should have cleaned up the suspension parts while you had the wheels off ;)
