I did touch mine up nice and dodgy before a big cruise with a can of red VHT caliper paint, matched the Brembos super well...but I felt dirty not doing a good job like the link Plus it was a gift to myself for a pay rise at yearly review Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/90009-brake-caliper-paint-peeling/page/2/#findComment-1527476 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure on your car colour but go for bright metallic greeeeeeeeeeeeenI chickened out and went for the safer orange choice.My car is Ego in colour. What do you think would go well with that?I'm definitely not showy enough for green.Those candy apple brembos are absolutely delicious though!!

I want to see someone else do it first. I tried a tiny patch and it went white, I rubbed it with my finger a bit and then left it alone hahaha. 1 Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/90009-brake-caliper-paint-peeling/page/2/#findComment-1527590 Share on other sites More sharing options...
