Chips on Brembo

Anyone knows how to fix these chips? Is it normal to have chips on the Brembo? I got those chips for all my Brembos after driving about 1800 miles (within 3 weeks).

Thanks

Get some touch-up paint from either the dealer or the manufacturer.

WO...

that would really **** me off man...

I dunno if they have the touchup pen for that ??? .. I guess they would ...

if they do .. word of advice ... dont try to touch it up in one ...or two or three applications... go for 4 ...essentially the thinist coats you can before the clear as to blend it ...

but I am sure you knew that ...

let us know if you can get the touchup paint will ya?

later man.

Re: Chips on Brembo

The city has too much money and they fixed the street the same day when I just got my G35C back to home. Since I'm living in a deadend street, there is not too much traffic. All the small rocks and dirts are still on the road even after 3 weeks (2 heavy rains).

It sucks.....

Re: Chips on Brembo

Cake-

Those are powdercoated. You will not find "paint" to match. You might try taking off the wheels and appling a high temp clear coat to the calipers to prevent future chips.

Brembo has an awsome website and respond quickly to concerns. Talk to them.

Thanks for all the shallow comments from the "peanut gallery" Do you F*#k's even own a Coupe?

Re: Chips on Brembo

Cake, any luck on finding something remotely close? I've got a small chip I noticed today. I called brembo and they don't offer anything.
