Other than the GT. Do other models offer brake caliper colors? I imagine they can be done with aftermarket alternatives. Thought it would be nice to do with my Grabber Blue order. Thanks guys.

GT’s and FE’s have red. All the others have plain silver/aluminum.

Yea - you gotta paint them yourself (several videos and "how to" descriptions available on this site) or find a auto detail or paint shop to do it. I gave my local shop the color code for Grabber Blue and they mixed caliper paint to match.

Holy crap this looks good. The blue + stripes is subtle but make a point. ??

Damn @JGuske23 that looks good too. Any suggestions for my Rapid Red? I was thinking of red calipers but feels like I could so something a bit more to make a statement (color matching isn’t a strong suit.)

I saw a RWD Premium with the red calipers. They looked like factory powder coat and not a DIY paint job. I wonder how this happened?

Could just be a really good paint job. People used to think my Blazer’s Chevy Orange calipers were powder coated. They look like hell now since the paint is decades old and has had brake fluid dribbled all over it.

Hey Kev, is that the Anti Matter Grey. The more I see that color on guys cars here. The more I like it. Plus. Yep powdercoat the rims, but did you do the calipers to? Your ride looks top shelf. You do good pics to.

Possibly. I looked at them pretty close and they look exactly like mine.
Perhaps they ordered the parts from Ford and swapped them out? Maybe the owner is on this forum and will respond?

My caliper paint job was $300. The quote for powder -coating was $900. I believe you have to take apart the brakes and reassemble if powder coating. Three months in and the paint is holding up just fine.

Thanks! This is the carbonized gray. Both rims and calipers powdercoated.
