The Lairds Shiny Red Bits

[Phil303]

After reading The Laird's thread on cleaning his car it struck me how nice the red calipers look.

I already know they aren't cheap, but are the red Brembo's easily swapped with the factory fitted ones?

aren't they just the factory ones painted red?

That would a great cheap solution if that's the case.

That's all I did.

Or rather, a mechanic did it for me last time the wheels were off for a refurb.

99% sure that's all Jim's are too.

Front ones are properly refurbished and, if you can do without the car for a while, that's a much better finish than just painted. They'll also just do the paint and not a full refurb if you want. My rear ones are painted - the advantage is that you can touch-up any scratches.

They'd look great on your car Brian; a stunning bit of detail contrast against the all black car.

are you trying to lure Brian away from the Dark (Black) side??

I always fancied yellow calipers same colour as Porsche, I think they would look good on Ming blue.

Mine are currently painted red, both front and rear, hate them...

if yours are serviceable we can swap them over.
