alright, basically my calipers look like crap. all rusted and stuff, and i really cant stand lookin at em. its gotten to the point where all i see when i look at my car is ugly calipers staring at me from under ugly rims, so i was wondering how much new calipers were for this car. i gotta get some to paint silver so i can buy some nicer rims. thanks for the info

 

Clean yours up with some solvent really well, let them dry, and use some high quality caliper paint on them.

wow, thats cool. the stuff really works well too. im trying to get everyone who thinks about painting their calipers to use the brush on type. the spray stuff just doesnt work as well.

 

Friggin awesome.

 

Bah...it's stock one-piston caliper. I don't think it'll make a huge difference when get your piston thermal coated (ceramic coating)...but for those who have the XG350...find a thermal coating place, like Swain (www.SwainTech.com). It'll reduce the temperature that the piston operates at, so that you can consistently brake hard without having your brakes feel like they've stopped working. (Best for autoX)

 

I am pretty sure that even a single piston caliper can benefit from themal coating. It might even benefit more as a large piston works harder and probably transfers more heat than two smaller pistons. I am assuming you are talking about coating the piston itself, NOT the caliper.

 

But none of that matters because the question was about Caliper Cost and Paint.
