Everyone got them on eBay. Just search for "Brembo Decal" and you'll see them. Make sure they are made from the high temperature vinyl so they won't curl and peel if you ever do hard braking and really heat up the calipers.

painting

i'm painting mine this w-end, going black with white "Brembo" i'm using the G-2 claiper kit from their eBay store, and the Duplicolor Spray Black and Clearcoat as well. i'll have to look up where i got my decals, also off eBay, but this seller was able to sell decals for the front and back. i ordered them from him and he came through. let me look for that information.

I personally like the red contrast on my blue exterior. Too much of one thing is overkill. If you dont have a BBY evo, it would be better looking IMO.

So what size vinyl did everyone get so that the "brembo" is the same size as the stock lettering in the front and rear?

great write up... but if you ever need to take apart you breaks make sure they aren't locked together b/c of the paint.

I did this a few weeks ago. I didn't peel off all of the clear coat, just most of it that can be seen from the side view. My brembo sticker was still good so I just spray high-temp clear coat over it. I think I did a sloppy job but it looks very good. A lot better then it did.
