Brembo Brake Gold Color in a can? - TriStateTuners.com :: Home of Tristate Auto Enthusiast

Pig STi · 09-08-2009, 09:39 PM

I need help finding the gold brembo color in a spray can. I want to do my Hella Supertones in that to match the brakes. Plus i think it'll look sick on a black STi. I hate that red they come in.

Anyone know where i could maybe find it?

Pig STi · 09-09-2009, 02:50 PM

I found out they don't make the color in touch up paint..... i ended up buying duplicolors universal gold high temp paint. It looks like a really close match to the brembos.

TalonTsi97 · 09-09-2009, 04:42 PM

Let me know how it all works up, i am VERY interested.

Pig STi · 09-09-2009, 04:56 PM

So are people on nasioc. I miiiiiiiight be the 1st one to ever paint Hella's to match the Brembos. That would be cool....I'll post pics in a week because they just shipped the Supertones and they're on their way to me. I'll paint them immediately though when i get them and post pics.........It won't be a perfect match but it'll be close enough.

kcnizm0 · 09-10-2009, 10:19 PM

hey man did you paint them yet? want to see how they turned out. im going to paint mine when i decide on what color rims i get.

nightblurr · 09-10-2009, 10:22 PM

lets see the pics, i cant wait

Pig STi · 09-11-2009, 10:36 AM

wow guys hold on haha....i got the can of spray paint. The Stupid a$$ i ordered the Hellas from said they were on back order after i ordered them 4 weeks ago. They FINALLY shipped and are goign to arrive at my door on the 16th...SO, that day i'll paint them. Check back in a week here. I'll post the pics then.

98GSXdude · 09-11-2009, 07:17 PM

Where'd you get the paint? I want to paint my non-brembo brakes gold and put Brembo stickers on them!!

haha, kidding

Pig STi · 09-12-2009, 12:04 PM

Advance Auto had it for $6

Pig STi · 09-15-2009, 01:31 PM

Ok finally arrived...i'm sanding & painting as we speak. Here's the before shot....

Pig STi · 09-15-2009, 04:30 PM

Update: Just finished light coat #3

But i started with a good hour of sanding to the bare metal and 2 coats of automotive primer....waiting till 5pm-ish to put the last coat on and then i am going to flip them and do 1 heavier coat on the back of them.

I can tell right away they are a bit lighter than the Brembo's but i didn't expect them to be right on. I just wanted something close. So far i'm happy.

TalonTsi97 · 09-15-2009, 04:47 PM

Leaving for school in a few minutes, looking forward to the outcome when i get home.
lol Can you take a picture of the spray can?

Pig STi · 09-15-2009, 05:28 PM

Pig STi · 09-15-2009, 10:57 PM

Pig STi · 09-16-2009, 09:46 AM

Pig STi · 09-16-2009, 11:04 PM
