My Brembos ....
I bought some Brembos for the front and have put them in to be re-sprayed .....
Having them done Black/Blue ...... Same as the car colour, hping for them to 'blend'
What colour to get the 'Brembo' written on the caliper though ??
I was thinking 'Electric Blue' (and no, not the mag
)
Your thoughts

I have already decided the brakes are to be Black/Blue, same as body colour so they don't jump out at you, and was thinking along the line of Brembo in blue, as that is the colour of the mica in the bodywork colour.

A fantastic looking job done there Nate..
Were they just painted or were they rebuilt at the same time?
I really like that

Frayz,
They were cleaned and prep'd the same as you would anything you are about to spray, then painted and the 'Brembo' logo stencilled back on .
They look like new now, I can't beleive the difference !!
I am a very happy bunny
