Hum I want mine to have LED's on it... so I can pick the caliper "glow".

Actually.... that's not a bad idea really.

I don't know why I even bother reading this board. Every day I read something here that makes me want to punt babies.

Why can't GMPP offer a couple different color Brembo calipers as an option? I think enough people would go for it to customize their SS. I doubt it would happen but it sure would be nice (but probably not cheap).

Why would they be any color than red? I thought Brembo's are red, all the pictures of the Brembo's on Camaro's are red, who is saying they aren't going to be red?
....wow I said red alot in this post....

It's never been said that they would be red. Which Camaros are you talking about? The silver SS doesn't have red calipers. We were shown the 99% final color at Indy and they weren't red. They were a darker color than what you see on the silver SS. So don't think that's what we're getting either.

They will say Chevrolet and Brembo on them per Tom Peters.

I feel the Design Team made the best decision for a color that is neutral enough to go with all the cars.

If anyone wants a different color, go buy some paint. Personally, I don't want red with my color scheme.

If it's any consolation to the early buyers, I just saw an article on the new Ferrari California $200,000 hardtop convertible, and it has silver Brembos.

Well... it looks like we're getting dark grey Brembos. Now I want Ferrari silver Brembos

canuckcamaro · 01-04-2009, 05:18 PM

is it possible to paint them yourself with a high heat paint?

or would it still peel off....i plan on using them to their fullest

zebra · 01-04-2009, 05:54 PM

powder coating would probably be your best bet, from what i hear

ZYAL8R · 01-04-2009, 09:56 PM

Bummer, I voted wrong in the poll. I meant to have gray for my Silver Ice.
