i was putting back on my stock wheels and i made a huge boo-boo. i knicked my brembos!!!! arrrhhhhhh!!
feels kinda like curbing your wheels........lol

anyways, the damage seems limited, just a small paint chip. doesnt look like i chipped it all the way where metal is exposed. but just to be safe i dont want any rusting issues in the furture.

so i was thinking of looking for some touch up paint to patch it up. any suggestions or recommendations?

Not half as bad as curbing your wheels!

That doesn't look to bad, you had to zoom in there pretty far just to get a picture!

Brembo should offer touch up paint

Just hit up autozone or something and find like a burnt orange type colour and out it on with a brush, it doesn't look to bad so you don't need to hide much.

I wouldn't say the Inca gold is a perfect match by any stretch, but it's not too bad.

i beleive that Brembo does make a touch up paint for it.
i remember my bro did the same thing to his STi Brembos, and he went to Subaru , and they gave him a touch up pen for the Brembos.
