The 4-piston V-6 1LE brakes I have on the front of The Beast were available as a dealer-add kit.
In fact, the previous owner found the part number of the kit and ordered it for what is now my car.
He got a screaming deal on the CTS-V rear brakes.
But the 1LE calipers are red and the V calipers are gray.
Until recently this was bugging me.
I've started noticing that hardly anyone with a Camaro who did the dealer-add bothered to get the matching rear brakes.
Red on front, gray in back is the norm!
Huzzah!
It matters a lot more on the Camaro rims than it did with the steelies.
it's looking good Angus...panzer guy...sometimes i can post, sometimes i can't...not sure why...
ReplyDeleteWould high temp paint work? You could make the rears red or be different and paint all 4 something original.
ReplyDeleteThere are several choices for color change.
DeleteIf I changed all of them, I'd shell out to powder coat in something garish, like acid green.
Places like Eastwood sell powder you can do powder coating yourself.
DeleteI have bought various powders for coating cast lead bullets. It reduces lead fouling and allows higher pressure loads without the expense of jacketing, plating or gas checks.

i could do it myself, but I want it to look good.
