Exclamation Advice needed please

Hi all
I am getting my refurbished 2 front calipers back from Godspeed on Monday they have been refurbished with new pistons & seals etc & powder coated red however I need to buy the white Subaru decals that go on the calipers and I am wondering if these ones are correct for my 2002 Bugeye Impreza WRX I have been told that these are an exact fit for the embossed letters here is the link to them: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1908487039...84.m1423.l2649

Here is the link to the 2nd set I am looking at: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/SuperGraph.../200755380766?

Don't think they have decals, try painting the letters white

As they're raised, some people run a small roller/sponge over them with paint on.

What Steve said. Its only the back ones that you'd want stickers for. Even with a small brush, just take your time. You don't even need to take your wheels off if the gap is big enough

Thought the later 4 pots were smooth and only the earlier ones that were part of the casting. May be wrong though

Would the paint need to be high temp heat resistance white paint Steve?
