I completely agree. Safety is much more important than aesthetics.

Mounting different brakes on different cars has nothing to do with with the paint but with the brakes itself.
What a stupid article.
Paint doesn't influence braking performance, lol.

I've refurbished the calipers on my X5 and repainted them.
Replaced the parts with OEM O-rings and dust caps, no problem whatsoever.
Same for the pads and rotors.

They are talking in their own church so to speak.

Cute.

"Safety is much more important than aesthetics." True and agree. True is also the fact that changing the colour of your calipers in a proper way will not alter safety, in any way.

TL;DR: All Your Caliper Are Belong To Brembo.
