yellow caliper paint? what color code are you guys using?
trying to get my calipers painted yellow like the trend is going. I had my painter paint mine and they came out a little bland. He told me he needs the exact paint code to make them the way I want.

I also am going to need the stickers either amg or brembo.

I have a grey e55 with gloss black painted rims.

Does anyone know the paint code to get the calipers painted similar to these pictures?

The code for Porsche's Canary Yellow is

R1012
(6824)

I don't know if that's what you're looking for but that color with black brembo logos would look the business on your ride

As for the logos this guy has the correct sizes:

BREMBO DECALS

Yep, That's what my body shop came up with because I was going to paint mine the same color.

Or if you really want to be baller you can pull a Ferrari yellow code. That color is gorgeous.

Also member pearlpower just did his yellow, you might want to ask him what he used, they look incredible.

The shop painted and although they came out the correct color I recommend everyone staying away from them.
