I have an 05 SE so the front calipers are already red and have white/silver HYUNDAI lettering on them stock. The rears are grey, so I shot them with seven coats of high-temperature engine enamel spray paint in Ford Red and it came pretty close to the stock red caliper color. I bought the four Tuscani decals from Dreamka4u and only used them on the rear calipers. If you take your time, the entire job can look like it came straight from the factory like that.

No. They fit perfectly on the rear calipers, and those two are the only ones that have the TUSCANI stickers.

1.3 MP images:

Red painted rear 05 SE caliper:

Rear 05 SE caliper with Dreamka4u TUSCANI decal:

http://home.comcast.net/~abosco1/DSC00834.JPG

See? They fit fine and look great. I'll have to get a better image of the decal because I put them on around 1am and I took it with my S710a camera with flash, so I'll get a daytime shot from a distance. It really does look like it came like that from the factory.

Yeah, somehow those decals are smaller. The calipers look the exact same, but when I was holding my sticker up to my caliper it didn't come close to fitting...very odd!

If I can remember, when I get home I'll take a pic w/ the decal next to the caliper to prove I'm not a moron.

hmmm, i wonder if they would send me larger ones for the front?

ones i got fit on the rear but i got the same small ones for the front, not that they look bad, but bigger ones would look better ofcourse.

or what about you send me the two big ones you're not using?

I would man but just in case anything happens I want to have that extra pair. I painted my calipers with the brush on kit and it didn't turn out as nice as I was hoping. I'm gonna be putting a second coat on soon and if it still doesn't look up to par...I may use the spray. I want to have those extras in case I need them.

Dreamka4u is very good in the customer service department. If you tell them you received 4 smalls and were under the impression you'd get the larger ones for the front, I'm sure they'll send them to you. They sent me the smaller ones with no question. Once I get the calipers to where I'm fully satisfied with the look, if I don't need the larger ones and you weren't able to get them from dreamka4u...I'm sure I can help you out.

Old Re: DIY Tuscani Caliper Stickers 04-11-2006 , 10:50 AM

I used the brush on Dupli-color and I am happy with it. This pic isnt very bright, but you can see the Tuscani on the caliper, I haven't had any problems out of that either. They have stayed on very well.
I opted to leave off the rear ones, cause 1) they wouldn't fit as ucf_bronco said and 2) I thought it was kinda overkill to have Tuscani on all 4 calipers.

i emailed dreamka4u and apparently they no longer carry the large ones and instead now just provide you with 4 small ones, if i didnt use 2 already for the fronts i would have gladly traded with one of you guys,

how about i pay you a small fee? i donno, $5? that's to either bronco or redtibby, whichever one of you who might be interested?

I too would like two big ones, for the front calipers, as dreamk4u stopped carrying these stickers.

PM me if you can help me out.
Thanks
