Just paint them red Dan, they'll look much better behind your white revolutions then
You can probably even do it sat down, so no pressure on your knees

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

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.

sorted !

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

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

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.
