fergie1471 Posted February 2, 2017 Share Posted February 2, 2017 Has anyone brightened up there calipers on the 370Z? I don't think the dark grey shows the wheels off as well as a coloured caliper would. Whats the best way to go about it? don't want them looking shoddy Ay experiences?

Payco Posted February 2, 2017 Share Posted February 2, 2017 Not on a 370z but had RT Performance paint my 350z Bembos red and add white decals.Looked very smart when I had the z. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrislich Posted February 2, 2017 Share Posted February 2, 2017 I'm looking at brakecaliperspeacialists. I'm tempted to go with gtr gold colour as mine is black Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ATTAK Z Posted February 2, 2017 Share Posted February 2, 2017 P15ULT and Zmanalex have supplied painted calipers to members 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P15UL T Posted February 3, 2017 Share Posted February 3, 2017 I don't have any 370z calipers to offer the painting service just now. Try contacting Zmanalex. I've had loads of 350z brembos painted in the past with no problems though Paul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Walsh350 Posted February 3, 2017 Share Posted February 3, 2017 i painted mine blue then added white writing ... they pop well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fergie1471 Posted February 3, 2017 Author Share Posted February 3, 2017 How much do you think ball park Im looking at price wise to get them done. Id have to just take the car down and leave it with them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P15UL T Posted February 3, 2017 Share Posted February 3, 2017 To do it properly they need to be removed from the car. I'm sure any decent body shop would be willing to do it if your able to leave the car with them for a few days 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fergie1471 Posted March 3, 2017 Author Share Posted March 3, 2017 Yellow would look good with the blue. Mine I white so I think red will be best for mine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Justthejedi Posted March 24, 2017 Share Posted March 24, 2017 I'm thinking of getting mine done too. The grey doesn't show up very well. As mine is Titanium grey i'm thinking either yellow or the gold, same as the 350 Brembo's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gstraw Posted March 24, 2017 Share Posted March 24, 2017 Hmmm not sure the yellow looks that good against the blue actually. Might need to go with RED more OEM. Any ideas the paint code of that yellow? I was thinking Porsche yellow Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LRF4N Posted March 24, 2017 Share Posted March 24, 2017 Red works on all blues. Yellow only works on certain blues on certain cars. Don't think it works on a 370 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gstraw Posted March 25, 2017 Share Posted March 25, 2017 Thinking this yellow perhaps. Bit darker thank the other guys Thoughts? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LRF4N Posted March 25, 2017 Share Posted March 25, 2017 That pic I found on google had a lot of black on the car which didn't help but I don't think yellow will work on a blue 370 How about orange? Irn bru theme lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

low IQ Posted March 25, 2017 Share Posted March 25, 2017 P15UL T when you paint the caliper are you using water based? I'm gonna paint mine next weekend at work and have enough water based in a specific colour paint for the job. Cheers for the advice.
