I remember reading that someone here was going to do Petronas teal as an accent color (ex. Calipers)

I was wondering if anyone has any pictures of it done?

Thanks.

Let us know if you solve it. I'd be interested in some Petronas Green calipers given my car is completely silver otherwise.

Looking more and more at it I think I would be more happy with a deep light blue. Or should it stay classy red...

I found a guy on eBay actually who has color matched it but he's from the UK so shipping is probably $. It comes in spray can. I'm not sure if it would be high heat though.

This one says it's high-temp and resists brake fluid:

The real stuff is made by Axalta, and is not available commercially.

"The development of the new PETRONAS green, which took place between July 2018 and November 2018, saw a pool of nearly 30 different green samples whittled down to the final choice, which is not commercially available."

Hi Lekoza,

I found some material and started with my center caps. My local auto paint guy wants $1000 to paint the calipers plus I have to remove and clean them. I'm going to try the front plate of the caliper to see if that may work and how it looks...concern is the how hot the front part of the caliper gets. Here's what the caps look like.
