Only the "S"s came with "red" calipers. Base models are black (but seem to turn grayish with age and heat).

Red stands out well, but yellow is less common. Silver would look nice, but not stand out well.

If I ever decide to paint my calipers, they will be red.

I know. I was saying Red was factory when painted other than black.

Make sure you get some go fast stickers to match your brake upgrade

Hi,

I used the G2 Kit and it works quite well. I removed my Calipers to paint them and used multiple coats - tricky because the Hardener gives you a fairly small window. But first, I wire brushed them well and used lots of Brake Cleaner to insure good paint adhesion.

I also used the Porsche stickers from xenon mods - not cheesey Brembo labels. Actually think it enhances the look considerably, especially with a Guards Red car...

Happy Motoring!... Jim'99
