MY04 WRX Brake Calipers/Bodies
The bodies / calipers on my 04 WRX brakes are wearing badly. The paint has all but flaked off and they look really poor. I dont know whats caused this, maybe just poor quality coating from the factory. (not like the shiney red brembo ones on the car next to it that I couldnt afford).
Any chance anybody has had this corrected or even replaced by Subaru. The rest of the car is mint. Someone told me to take them off and paint them myself, but I dont realy fancy it. Is there something in the warranty I could point to ???
