Default Painting Calipers suggestions
I was debating whether to paint them or not...I painted ones on my BMW, but after extensive track use, the Folia Tec stuff just burned off. I don't plan on tracking the S4, so are there any problems with color fade from heat? Also, is Folia Tec the best stuff to buy or is there something better? Where to buy? What is the part number for those cool Audi Ring decals that go on the caliper?

Thanks.

I got the G2 and have yet to do it too. I'm waiting to get my Mintex Redbox pads on first.

Default search for bluedevilS4 post on this. Mike is a local guy that did the same thing with the rings, he
should be able to assist.
