    Well my Brembos were getting nasty. THe black was turning back to aluminum and I hated it. So my detai shop offered to paint them with the G2 paint system with the custom color matched paint to the Green Go color.

    Here are before pictures

    will there be "Brembo" painted on or some kind of vinyl sticker added?

    Although I think just the matching green looks awesome.

    It's hard to believe red is a $500 option now.
    - not that hard, actually since it is right on the window sticker. lol

    That's what they do with car pricing to make you think you are getting a deal vs. the previous year. They take make one option cheaper, but tack on a lot of money for another option. Tricky Tricky. On my car the Red brembos was a $195 add i believe

    I remember reading where a guy ordered a 2018 hellcat which comes standard with the red 6 pistons setup, and he paid $495 as an option for black. You would think that would get you black powderccoated calipers - nope they were uncoated just like lb3711's. Talk about screwing over buyers.
