Brembo P08 Caliper paint

They were anodised originally. Had good results using Wurth satin black paint after beadblasting, looks right and resists brake fluid.

best solution is to send them in to an anodising shop and have them re anodised. Just strip them to the castings before taking them in.

or, almost as cheap to buy brand new calipers as to completely rebuild them, and the F 08's are still readily available new.

Hi Davo

no, the units with threaded mounting holes have been unavailable for a number of years, long enough for people to figure out how to adapt the non threaded calipers to the applications that originally had threaded calipers. Myself, I wouldn't bother, I would (and did) mount more modern Brembo four piston gold calipers, adapters are available for both 40 mm spaced calipers and 65 mm spaced calipers.
