I'll second that. I used red engine paint that looked good at first but
is now turning to a darker shade of red..

There is a can of stuff at the local, uh, Japanese Tuning
Shop(politically correct) by folia tech that costs about $50.. They say
it works well. It sits right next to the neon wheel well lights. =) and
comes in several colors including red.

My ECS kit came with super blue.. hm.. I bought it about 2 months ago.
I've never used pentosin brake fluid.. I didn't know they made it to be
honest..

I waited a LONG TIME for my ECS parts BTW.. Took about a month. Tom was
very nice and explained that his machine shop(which CNC's the caliper
adapter)was a little on the slow side.. It really wasn't a huge problem
for me to wait.. He also put up with some really DUMB questions I asked..
