Calipers & tow hooks painted Code Orange

Finally got around to painting the calipers and tow hooks code orange. I think it turned out pretty good and goes well with the Shelter Green.

Easy to use, just do the prep work throughly and you'll be fine. Used it on the tow hooks too.

What a great looking truck -- nicely done!

What color G2 paint? there are several red/orange colors even the Ford specific ones listed on their website. It looks like yours matches.

Also normally I mock clean trucks as being pavement princesses but yours is impressively clean.

My guess was Molten Orange, which has more red, than Competition Orange. Thanks

Way ahead of you guy, there are 6 orange colors listed there, and of those 2 look close. OP stated its Competition Orange.

Thanks for the compliment. I didn't buy this truck to jump, rock crawl or go mudding. I got a beater for that. This truck and my Shelby are garage kepted but both driven regularly.

I understand. I wish I had not sold my XJ Jeep Cherokee but I did not have the space. That was a fun simple design beater.
