the factory paint/powder coat will be the best.

painting them properly will require dismantling them, stuff that.

and what if the new paint cant handle the heat?

The callipers are different colour. The fronts are off a S204 and are the newer bronze colour whilst the rears are the older gold.

The guy that does the painting does it as a business and the images above of various callipers are his work.

You'd think if it's a business than the paint would be designed for brakes.

Hi Chrus, you definately need to find an excuse to get back over here. And back on topic, White on Black is more in keeping with the subtle, sleeper style of mods you're doing. Only obvious to those in the know.

I'm the same but the cost is simply horrendous.

No

VOTES so far:

Black with Sti logo (as OEM on 2008 Tuned by Sti Liberty),

American Dave
TJ (who is this man)
Kid (with silver logo – not sure if that exists)
Scary
Jimmy S
Kato
Rexxxed
Grumpy

Silver with blue Brembo logo (to suit Zero sport engine bay),
JDM Style

Silver with Black Sti logo (as per S402 2008 Liberty),
Master D
Trainwrex
Chrus the rock lucker

Or Gold with the usual red Brembo logo (to be part of the crowd).
Thuggy B

With a couple of exception including:

Burnt Orange with Black logo – Monkeee
Cherry Blossom Red - Spektre

And M’D and Magic who didn’t really answer the question. Regardless, the trend seems obvious so far.

OK it is quite simple - "if" you actually use the brakes to their potential ALL colours will change according to the heat. Look at anyone with gold brembo's that have used them in anger and they are now poo brown.

Black with white letters will turn into Black with burnt sauce letters.

Anyone with original coloured brembos should immediately have them removed and given to someone who might actually use them as intended.

SO once again - B L A C K with W H I T E writing
