different colored brake calipers?

nashtyboy · 03-12-2011, 10:49 PM

Guys, been searching around a bit and have been unable to find a replacement for the boring gray calipers that our cars come with. I think it'd look great to have yellow or red calipers - anyone come across a shop selling these?

Not sure what's with Nissan not providing this option, I think it's a great touch that many sports car makers are all over.

You could just get them painted it's cheaper than replacing

Duplicolor makes a caliaper paint that works really well and does not cost alot.

yeah, I powdercoat them, and I do it on an exchange basis, but there is a little wait right now with one set of cores and about 5 people in line from this forum and the G37 customers.

Not bad price. Making my decision easier of what direction I'm going.

Have Mike powder coat them for you, you won't regret it.

Mike did mine and I couldn't be happier. Check out my album for pics.
