Red brake calipers flaking off

[s4lek]

Hi does anyone know how much it cost to replace the rear red brake calipers, they are starting to peel off really badly now , the car is 2005 gti so Probably expected.  Do they cost alot to buy brand new or has anyone got any for sale. Or shall I just buy a tin of red paint.

It's kind of a shame they are the rears.  My front calipers are sitting around in my garage!!

take them off, sand them down and paint them. (halfords caliper paint)

OR

take them off contact daveB on here, he will have them powder coated for you.

put a post in the wanted section, I am sure that someone who has fitted the S3 Rears will have a set they will part with.

Buying new calipers is crazy talk.

....Apparently new they cost £148 each (£296).. I usually sell stuff at about 50%+shipping but they have done about 80k miles (totally problem free).. Does £120 the pair seem fair? I don't know what other people would charge and I want to be fair without giving them away.

If interested, I could bring them to Inters with me on the Sunday.

Cheers for offer but really looking for something cheaper , insufficient funds. May even have a go painting them.
