Red Calipers
Has anyone considered having the brake calipers powder coated with an HT finish, in red.
Mine is a 2004 E55 in Black, and I would be ineterested in experience/opinion.

I have been a victim of a full-blown key-job...so.......three weeks later, after a complete re-paint, I now have a super clean, shinny metalic black 99 E55..WITH red calipers. It looks very cool and much more race-like. I had them use the GT3 paint kit while it was at the body shop. The perfect touch. I added chrome 19" rims and tires and it looks like a $100K car. You will love the mod.
