Painted brake calipers?

Very impressive attention to detail including the masking of the cross-over line (even Tesla/Brembo don't take that extra finishing step)!

Alright. This is the paint I used to paint my Calipers. the color is selected is the same green color as Gecko green from the Jeep Wrangler 2012. looks amazing.
The paint was ordered from : these guys are pretty awesome and the results are nothing short of OEM quality. If you didn't know i painted them you would think they were from TESLA.

Interesting to see this color (body) for a TESLA. Was the car re painted! I don't remember ever seeing this color as an option on TESLA's website. Perhaps an early production. Nevertheless.. I really like it! very nice

Here's what i did this weekend on my Calipers, I painted electric green. I took the idea from Porsche with their new 918 (hybrid) supercar. The Calipers are painted electric Green. I tought it was appropriate color since the TESLA is relatively green!

They look great. Has Tesla given you any warranty issues because you painted your brake calipers?
