Painting Brake Calipers

[RAHRCR]

I would stay away from yellow/white. Not only because of the light brake dust but because those colors are associated with big brakes. They look even more tiny in those colors and make them obvious faux brake upgrades…at least for the Porsche faithful. Red is a safer color to avoid looking like a knock off.

Here are some echos from above.
With ‘filled in’ aero wheels you can’t see the callipers much so with your wheels I wouldn’t bother. Open RS Spyder wheels. Perhaps.
Base matte black callipers hidebrake dust best.
Agreed red is best choice if you must.
Porsche will punish you if you trade in with them.
Definitely don’t bother with white or yellow.

I’m considering getting my break calipers painted. They are currently black and don’t really show through the 20” Turbo Aero wheels. Taycan is white so the build is identical to this picture. My initial thinking is to go with red, but also have been thinking yellow lately. I appreciate any opiniuns and other things to consider. I have a reputable, high-quality custom wheel shop.

Thanks.

Any color but yellow.
Seriously.
People won't tell you, they'll act perfectly normal, even Porsche people cuz they're well-mannered but they will whisper behind your back...
So just don't.
Really.

I had mine painted neodyme to match the interior.
Worked out very nice

I wouldn’t do anything to draw more attention to tiny brake rotors.
