I am happy with my factory set up.... Know I will need pads / rotors in the next 5k - 10k miles. Is there an exchange for a caliper refinish? Mine are factory black but worn....

Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

What do you mean exchange? Like take your old ones to the dealer for a credit toward new ones? If so, then........ With that said, Tim (search user gota911) did a great write-up on refinishing the calipers. He did his in red but you can do black, etc..

Check out this likn. It is the thread Dell mentioned above. If you have any questions, post them here and I'll try to answer them. Painting Your Calipers You might also be interested in the "companion" thread below. Your could paint both at the same time and save yourself some time by hot having to jack up the car and removing the wheels a second time. The pics on the first page are rather grainy but there are better pics on page 2. Painting Your "Top Hats"

OUCH!!! Damn, you are beating me up this early in the morning???? I haven't even finished my first gallon of DD coffee! No, I haven't. They are a nice looking silver or platinum (yeah right!) so I want to keep them stock. I don't want my "ricer buddies" to accuse me of trying to make my car look like a German car, or as they call it a "kraut kar."
