Painting Calipers...

[Dav_s]

Does anybody know of a firm in the south-east, preferably London or the Berkshire area, that paint brake calipers and will also "re-do" the manufacturers name/logo on them?

[andy355]

i think Verdi used to offer that

[topjay]

Verdi do a good job, logos included. £750 I believe.

LHW will also do it but want £3500.

There is a couple of guys in essex that will do a good job & are even cheaper if you can go that far.

Also if you fancy doing it yourself, the logos are on ebay for £2.50 each

DAV S Like the yellow with black .
Will you be taking the calipers off or do you need a place that will do the whole job??
cheers Dave

Oh no, not more bright yellow calipers on black cars!
Dave are you on mission to get all black Lambos to have bright yellow calipers then? lol
Think I'll have to call on Will to get petition up to halt this crusade!

I want mine painted yellow on the 360, but £750 seems a bit excessive to me! Does anyone know what sort of paint they'll need to use? I might just get my usual bodyshop guy to do it for me.

They will use a VHT paint, specifically for brakes/engines/etc, hammerite and radiator paint also works! Also there are kits for brakes by companies like foliatec.

I want mine orange, but bottled trying to do it myself, and didn't want it bad enough to pay £750... interested if anyone has any alternatives or recommendations!

KDS Keltec has just done this for a friend of mine.
