Brake Caliper Kit

Do anyone sell a paint kit for my faded Brembo's. Or is there anyone here that offers a painting service for calipers similiar to what EVO Dave does for the head lights?

no there is a write up on how to fix them yourself. If your going to take them off you might as well take them to a local powdercoater

its somewhere under the evo howto section. IT all depends how long you want them to last I honestly dont see some spraycan paint lasting all that long which is how most are fixing theres. You could have someone professionally respray them or powdercoat there suppose to be powdercoated from the factory... but for some reason it sucks

When I redo mine in black, I'm going to use 500deg exhaust paint and clear. Should be good enough, I don't beat my car enough to kill the paint again.
