Chris Hlubb wanted red brakes, but the regular (non-"S") Boxster calipers, the heart of System 1, were only available in black. So, Chris did the next best thing: he repainted his calipers red, all while keeping the Porsche logo!
"Tell me what you think. I took the time to paint my Boxster calipers red,
now i have little reds. It was tough to keep the Porsche white lettering but I did it. Just wanted to show you guys it can be done, cheaply too, it cost me $8."You'll also note that he has slotted rotors over those Borbet Type M wheels, obtained from APR (http://www.goapr.com):
"I got the mess about the rotor fixed [they originally sent him Euro-A8 rotors]. If you want to post on the BIRA
site some info about ordering aftermarket A8 rotors here is some more. APR offers Brembo smooth, cross drilled or slotted rotors for $110 each but tell people to MAKE SURE they ask for US spec rotors, they have to be made."Way to go!!
