Absolutely!

Give us a call if you are in the Southern California Area

Alex - I am in Houston and was curious if your shop is purely a CA based outfit - do you do any business in TX by any chance? I am guessing not, so next question, would you or anyone else here on the forum recommend a top quality shop in the Houston area that could turn this around fast? I can think of some but have never used them for this sort of thing - may just do myself but if I'm lazy need to find options!

Or should I just buy the M-Performance brake kit in the color I want and then sell the stock blue ones?

Hey, when you say the M-performance brake kit, did you mean the entire brake system (including the caliper, pads and discs)? I was wondering if we can just purchase the caliper in the color we want.

Also, how do we go about ordering them?

Cheers.

Having the calipers repainted is easy but I haven't found a solution for replacing the ///M logo with something that will stand up to high heat / track use. Most places just apply an ///M decal/sticker and clear coat over top - this looks great for street use but not for the track. Does anyone know of a magic solution

haha, good question. I don't track my car but curious how this would be done. maybe Sean@TAG or David@TAG or Alex can give some input.

Did mine in yellow

I was thinking yellow over the Yas Marina Blue as well. Do you have any more pics of the yellow calipers with the Yas?

These are great pics thank you. I think I'm going to go with these yellow calipers as well and swap out the seat belts for yellow ones to tie it together a bit. Definitely front carbon splitters and performance lip as well. I like the look of the painted front lip with the carbon fiber splitters. And the modding begins on another build......
Your car looks great thank you

This looks great! When you went to paint these did you have to disassemble the calipers completely?
