boost69 Legacy Donating Member 737 Member For: 21y 4m 5d Posted 11/02/15 12:46 AM Posted 11/02/15 12:46 AM You guys think warranty would cover something like clearcoat peeling off your Brembo brakes?...Anyone tried??

Reaper Customs WA guys, check them out for panel beating etc.Steve what did it set you back roughly if you don't mind me asking? mine are in need of some loving...Might be a good opportunity for me to get my bonnet aligned as well

I got it a tiny bit cheaper at $400.I also stripped brakes off car and delivered them to him. Picked up the following day.Make sure to ask him if the extra fifty is to ensure correct logo orientation too, hahaha. 1

My suggestion would be to scrape a bit of paint off from the un-seen side and then take that paint chip to a paint place and they'll be able to provide you with the paint code. Also... you could try calling the brembo company, but I have no idea whether they'd be hospitable when it comes to giving out such information You guys think warranty would cover something like clearcoat peeling off your Brembo brakes?...Anyone tried??Worth a try. I've never heard of anybody with warranty having issues with the paint on their brakes.

boost69 Legacy Donating Member 737 Member For: 21y 4m 5d Posted 11/02/15 11:01 PM Posted 11/02/15 11:01 PM I think some Mistibushi EVO guys have been able to claim flaking clearcoat off their calipers...I might just ask anyway...but I highly doubt it...VG Auto Paints in Sydney said they could match it if I gave them a flake of paint...I'm hoping someone else could be the donor...lolThey actually had the code for the gold Brembos but didn't have it for the red, which I found strange as I would assume the red would be more common.
