Eeesh... that sig is NAS-TEE.
um- KIDDING.
If anyone is still checking this thread... IMO, red only works on BLACK. I'd do black calipers on a silver car. Link below to the whole brake job i did recently.

i am mad. i followed the same tech article you did. the paint on my rotors didn't last one day! ,...
what a waste of time. people should be more careful when spreading ludicrous information. the armor-all on my tires nearly caused me to run over a bird's egg. a friend told me later that whoever said to use armor-all on your treads was WRONG.

Where are you based out of? Every time I see a pee-yellow A4, I think it is Boki, then no rings on the door, could be you.
