IS300h - calliper painting

[HoofHearted]

Anybody had their callipers painted? And if so what colour? 
 

Considering getting mine done but always nice to see examples.

I did mines a few weeks ago:

When I took delivery of my RC it came with the so-called “Orange Pack” brakes, which I hadn’t ordered and initially thought were unsuited to the Sonic Titanium body - an opinion I have since changed.  My dealer offered to repaint them in any colour I liked, and I recall the head of the body shop recommending, as he apparently did to all customers undecided about a new caliper colour, to look to the Porsche range for inspiration.

I do all my cars black. Its clean tidy and un noticed. 

You don't notice black but you notice rust or a colour with brake dust on it.

When I got mine someone had already done them in Orange. I did not like it too much and chose to have them re-painted "Brembo" red, but when I got it back they still look a bit orangey-pinky brake dusty coloured.  But on a dark night in the rain in a dark street they look brembo red (ish).🤩

No, I am not colour blind.

I am trying to learn to like it🥶.

Shiny black ( with Lexus logo of course ) with a topping of brake dust is probably best.

No no no no no sir!  No logos and no shiny paint. Sattin black only. 

My idea is to make them as un noticed as possible. Just nice clean lines

I agree.  Red painted calipers isn't my thing at all . Black or a dark silver/grey looks clean and tidy
