What colour are the s3 brakes

[Bish155]

I have the s3 front brakes, and have just had to buy a new set of rear gti Calipers.
I want to paint the rears the same colour as the front s3 ones, does anyone know the correct colour?

Any high temperature black paint will do the trick and match the fronts.

Thanks guys, I have never painted Calipers before and am looking at a company to change the colour. Is it an easy job to paint yourself?

with the correct prep work it is. i use high temp paint just to be safe.

And the correct prep work being? Thanks for the reply

sanding paint back, then clean calipers ready for paint with a de greaser. easy to do it with calipers off the car. i prefer spray cans as it gives a better finish in my view. use a high temp laquer to get a nice shine. take you time and dont rush or youll regret it. if you do it on the car then make sure everything is taped up well to prevent overspray.
