Is anyone installing these and keeping the factory grey finish? Where can the brembo decals be bought?

Some guys are getting them powdercoated....I didn't want to disassemble brand new calipers to be coated, so I used G2 caliper epoxy/paint. You can find the decals on ebay/amazon and facebook. I had mine made by Vellos vinyl.

I painted mine using one of the Autozone paint kits that heat up and harden. I can make you the Brembo decals or just about any vinyl shop if 98 svt cant get them for you. I used silver Oracle 651 vinyl.

Does anyone have a rebuild part number for the arts v Brembo calipers? I ripped one of the inside seals while trying to take them apart to have them powder coated. Also is there a how to take them apart and assemble thread? Thanks in advanced.

I finally got some new spacers that bring the poke down to an acceptable level. 17mm for my wheels. Based on my original measurements, these calipers protrude about 35mm further toward the wheel than the OEM Cobra calipers.

Chris S. sells new offset guides/spacers to bring everything back to factory. I am the process of hammering out the old guides and putting the new ones in so that the caliper can be mounted. I am happy I do not have to drill the spindle which is a permanent mod.

I am so confused. What are these spacers everyone is talking about? I have this mod and no spacers were needed. Is it to fit specific wheels?

Yes, the bushing kit offered by lowranger96 can be purchased with optional rotor spacers so you don't need to mill the caliper.

If anyone needs spacers mine are for sale as well as a new pass side caliper.

.075” or 1.905 mm



ok not sure why people are adding extra parts to a simple mod and then have issues with spacers.
This makes the calipers a bolt on mod without drilling the stock spindles. The bushings in the kit replace the factory brembo caliper bushings. It also lowers the caliper down so you don't have the large amount of pad that doesn't contact the rotor. In my opinion it's the only way to do this mod.
