I did the same thing about a month ago except I didn’t paint the calipers. It was probably one of the “biggest bang for the buck“ upgrades I have done so far.

It was probably one of the “biggest bang for the buck“ upgrades I have done so far.Just completed my GT brake upgrade yesterday and it was easy and looks awesome. Bought almost new GT calipers off EBay, brakes rotors from Advance Auto and stainless steel brake lines from LMR.com. Painted calipers with G2 paint and high temp stencils then applied high temp clear coat paint.
Bleeding the brakes was quick and easy and couldn’t be happier.

I bought my calipers here on Ebay, check his store he has other choices.What types of rotors, brakes, and calipers did you guys use and what did the price come out to? I've been looking around for about 2 months and haven't pulled the trigger yet because I'm a little indecisive on which parts are high priced vs high quality. I don't need or want a $5000 brake kit, but a $600 front and rear kit sounds sketchy lol.
I think you only need to swap master cylinder if you go to GT PP brakes, standard GT are okay with Ecoboost master.did you need to swap out the master cylinder for these bigger brakes? or just the lines?
No, not for the four piston calipers. Brake lines came with my almost new calipers but I decided to use stainless lines instead.did you need to swap out the master cylinder for these bigger brakes? or just the lines?
