WTB? OEM AMG Caliper Decals
Anyone have a source for oem caliper decals? I am getting my calipers painted and want new decals, thanks.
I purchased some from eBay but are not the right size, close but not perfect.

Whats up bro,
The OEM ones are not decals, they are pad printed on every calliper for longevity.
If you have a vector file you can have any vinyl shop shape and cut them for you in any size etc.

This is the way to do it. When I painted my brake calipers, I had a vinyl shop vector file a stencil and then took the stencil to the paint/body shop. The body shop used the stencil to paint on the AMG decal on top of the painted calipers. Then they clear coated the whole thing. This way, you don't have to worry about the AMG lettering ever coming off or fading like a sticker may down the line.

The vinyl/sticker/tint shop will know what's up. It's basically how graphic files are created so they won't be pixelated when blown up to serve our cars vs. pixel based files. (We use vector files in the software to create these graphics)

How do these look on the calipers? And do you have pics? Would also like to know where you got the gold paint, as I'm considering the same. Thx.
