And they would look like the below...only in yellow or black! Considering all that OEM Textar brake dust that never gets washed off, black might be a good decision

but red looks so good! whip, you do have a point though. seriously, will i be able to keep it clean? whip as most people on this forum are very anal about keeping their 986 spotless...but what about the average joe, like me? any daily drivers out there who did this? is it too difficult to keep the dust off?

Naa, just paint them black, hose them off and switch out those expensive Textars for Akebono brake pads

Actually you would be surprised, I find the rims/wheels collect a lot more dust then the calipers do.

BTW - the Benz sold...headed to a nice home in Greenville SC this Sat.
