Painting the Brembo calipers
I'm thinking I might want to paint the calipers, rally yellow to match the paint. Is there a color code for the 2010 colors, and/or are they already available on other GM models? I mean, I know there are paint codes, but can I walk into a Pep Boys today and buy a can of GM Rally Yellow paint?
I've never done this before, so I assume it's some kind of engine block paint or some high-temp variant to use.. |

I'm planning to do that as well, I'm thinking of getting them to match my inferno orange interior... I just hope I get to do it can repaint the chevrolet text/logo that is already on the calipers.

Put the car on jackstands and take the calipers off then have them powder coated.
Best way IMO*. |

You can get Brembo stencil kits when you repaint. NO need to disassemble the entire caliper just to powdercoat. I think its tacky Chevrolet is on there with Brembo - kinda like a "meeee too?" approach.....
