Factory brembo... is it PAINTED red? Or is it powder coated? I'd assume paint...

With respect to powder coating, if I coat them, will they change funky colors when I actually use them? My brembos are now brownbos and wondering if I track after powder coating if the color will end up poop anyways?

This particular color is candy red.

They are painted not powder coated from factory.
To answer your second question, it depends who powder coats them. Just like with engine building, not everybody builds them the same and has the same experience. We have had zero issues with the calipers we powder coat.

Repainting Brembo's HOW TO: https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/ev...embos-how.html

What I'm looking for is either:

-Unique color's on your Brembo's
-Repainted red Brembo's


Post your pictures, and what process you used! (Powder coating, Paint cans.) and wether you took it to a shop, or you DID IT YOURSELF!

NOW LETS SEE SOME PICS!

(Here are some pictures I got from EvoM Threads) :: From the thread they appear to be done DIY, while the brakes are still on the rotors.
