Hello all. Thinking about going with either white or black "brembo" on red calipers on a black ss. Any pics to help??? Thank you.

Where do you get the Brembo caliper decal that can withstand the heat?

I've done a lot of head banging regarding this. Frome what I have seen on all the posts where peopole are getting them powder coated, the white shows up better from a distance. They both look great. Traditionally Brembo uses white with red. I guess it all comes down to what you like and how bad you want the brembo to stand out. I prefer it to stand out a little more. A buddy of mine did his in red but decided to go with the silver and I thought that looked really good. In fact, I will probably do that myself.

Red calipers with black lettering. Make sure you get the high temp decal. Had mine done about 6 months ago.

This is best one I good find for now

It looks good, but in pics it just looks like the Brembo does not show up that good especially with a darker red like you have. I don't know if that is the case in person. I think silver lettering would have looked good too on your car.

Like this...

Black just looks like gets washed out more.

In person it does look better but the silver would stand out more. I did think about the silver but my body shop already had the black one printed up.

Are yours painted or did they powdercoat them. Like the rims by the way.

Just got my painted Victory Red calipers in the mail Friday afternoon from Showstoppers. Mine have the black Brembo lettering as recommended by the vendor. Hope to get them mounted this week on my CGM, will send pics.
