Rs4 brake calipers repaint

Did any one here ever repaint the front calipers on the 07 RS4 mine is kind fading a bit!?

Powder coat

That would be ideal.

To do it though the calipers should be rebuilt with new pistons and seals. Getting the RS logo back on there can be a PITA because it is painted on.

Sounds like a quattrofailworld mod…

Who cares about your brake callipers.

P. S. Ever try another exhaust on your car to see if it was a limiting factor?

Why would you use new pistons if they aren’t damaged?

No i haven’t tried another exhaust on my car, i think my clutch is slipping on a high rpm! I tried couple of launches a week ago and slipped pretty good!

Stock clutch?
Why are you trying to launch from high rpm?

1 use launch assist
Or
2 launch from 3700 rpm

No high rpm launches!

I have launch assist i used it! I meant wrong

I have launch assist i used it! I meant to say on launches and high RPM like down shift

I don’t think that it is possible to get just the seals for the eight piston front brake calipers. The rebuild kit listed on ECStuning shows seals and pistons. The rear caliper seals are available separately so for them you could just reuse the pistons.

Ah, good to know Jimmy, thanks.

Denis if your slipping on downshifts and higher gears…your probably in the wrong gear.

Hum i think im going w one of these colors,lambo orange or brembo red,professionally done!

Red will look like McDonald’s with yellow

Orange will look weird on yellow car

Black is perfect

Since you are from Brazil how about green!

No green here!:slight_smile: MC donalds hahahha never thought of that! Lol, maybe some nice silver,

Off topic, you’re screen name isn’t a reference to you being a Denver, Colorado rs4 is it?

I think it’s a Cali RS4.

It’s his name. Denis

no its my name Denis, so ppl sometime call me den so i infused DENRS4 :slight_smile:

Clever! I’ve been trying to find an rs4 here in denver that wants to go to the drag strip, all these high altitude audi guys are chicken. I’ve yet to see any Audi’s aside from me and 2 of my friends, even keep inviting the local guys.

Anyway back to the topic.

How about just body matched yellow?

I wouldn’t go black, black and yellow remind me of bumble bees. Bumble bees remind me of camaros, camaros remind me of transformers, transformers reminds me of Megan Fox’s thumbs.

Hahahaha! Nah if im doing the calipers i have to go a different color! I really like the gunmetal and the yellow combo on that m3!
