Purple Caliper Paint besides G2?

I am looking for a purple closer to my metallic purple haze. Any ideas? I don't really have the $$ for custom...

Maybe this high temp engine paint would work for you?

Redhotz, when you use G2 do you jack up all 4 wheels at once? I have the kit and am trying to strategize how to get mine done given the limited time frame to use the paint once it's activated.

Depending on how you drive your car, the 500F DupliColor might not be enough for brake calibers. Especially on the track.
