Just paint them red Dan, they'll look much better behind your white revolutions then:thumb:

You can probably even do it sat down, so no pressure on your knees:D

AFAIK, there are no touch up pens for the Brembo colours, nor are there any paint codes.

A decent wheel repair place would mix you some, though.

i can remember reading on north america subaru impreza owners club, using wait for it... gold nail polish (no joke) they used to use a honda paint that was very similar to the brembo gold but they get good results using nail polish. search for it on nasioc

I have used the below Peugeot colour and it is a really good match, I'm not sure what they call the colour but Halfrauds sell the touch up paint for the colour :thumb:

HT04 24 February 2010 05:33 PM

the peugeot colour is erm,......not a good match. tbh i thought it was well out. so,....after an internet trawl i have found the correct paint for the brembo's.

honda inca-pearl, paint code Y-61P

sorted ! :luxhello:

yea where the feck do u buy it from? Honda dealer is the only place I can think of.

Ayde 25 February 2010 02:14 AM

I got some off an online touch up paint place in the uk, think it was about a tenner for far to much of the stuff, think I could repaint the calipers with it lol! The match is ok but not 100%, not really noticable on smaller chips though;)

HT04 02 March 2010 08:28 PM

got my touch up from the local honda dealer today. and the paint match is spot on. perfect :thumb:

I have this info written in my little book of useful information!

Honda Inca Pearl gold - Code Y-61P, Pt No 08703-Y61PPAH (which might be paint stick I suspect).

If you get some post back the result.
