I'd like to do mine red at some point, but I don't want to be too stereotypical. Who knows. I may be getting some AMG wheels and then powder-coating them a good gunmetal. I'll know tomorrow.

Unless it's a custom color that they don't make, I have no idea why everyone just doesn't use G2 caliper paint.
Or you have a woody for doing things yourself from ground zero, but you are running the risk of messing up the seals, etc.
Looking forward to pics, of course.
Hope it's a good custom color!

I got mine painted Brembo red professionally and they turned out real nice. I am going to get some of the G2 caliper paint for the rears though so both front and rear have a little bit of red poking out. Are you doing white as well BigNaldo? I think the white with black stickers on it will look good with gunmetal rims. Post pics.
