i was going to go with the lambo verde ithaca color but it's got a lot of pearl in it and is pretty expensive. didn't think brake calipers needed pearl. That industrial waste green was cheap.

Just wanted to give you a look at what you can do as a DIY project. Aluminum primer, with several coats VHT Burnt Copper. No chips so far.

Chris - yes the color is VHT Burnt Copper. Used a set of curved AMG stickers for the 6-pots and smaller straight AMG stickers for the rear 4-pots. Got them on eBay - two different vendors to get the right look and quality.
