Apologies.


You were saying red calipers are pants (or words to that affect)
You have a red car so I assumed you must like the colour red 2006 RRS Supercharged 4.2 HST muthuaflecka!

From a purely practical point of view, my previous Cars calipers seized after 5 years with corrosion on the piston and they looked rusty as hell. I fitted new calipers but painted them gloss black (Because that’s what I had at the time) and they lasted 9 years and 100,000 miles and were still good when I moved the car on. I can only assume it’s because I kept them clean and/or the dirt/salt washed off the gloss a little easier. 2019 5.0 SC SVA (Current)
2012 5.0 SC AB. Sadly written off by a campervan

1943 Whites M16 Halftrack (Current)
16 plate Eurofighter Typhoon, 2 x Eurojet engines with 20,000lbs thrust each. 1380mph

Yeah my factory Jaguar brembos are painted grey and brake dust never sticks to them! Amazing paint they used.
If only they could have used the same stuff for the wheels!

I like bare aluminum look, rotary wire brush clean, clear coated and Gtechniq nano aplaid. two years later they look the same. easy clean with power washer .
