Painting the brembo calipers
Anyone painted their brembo calipers or does everyone leave them red? I’m kind of interested in painting them to match the car.

Ive painted calipers before and its not fun because it's hard to spray evenly due to it's shape and after awhile you will probably have paint chipping off. I think it's worth paying someone who can powder coat them for you.

LMAO stocker, that was good.
I painted my calipers and they have held up just fine, Just make sure your prep is perfect before you start painting. I used a primer from a rattle can and factory matched paint in a mini co2 powered spray bottle, works most excellent for small projects and it was only 5 bux.
