Caliper Covers

[EFI]

Got it! How would these be instead of the Bullitt rears? I assume these would bolt on? Would a bracket be needed?

No, these are not as simple as the fronts. Noone has made a bracket for them to simply bolt on, you will need the whole rear hub setup from the GT350.

These will most definitely require a master swap also as you are completely throwing off the brake bias. Not sure of your intended use, but these are not needed unless you are a semi-professional racer racing for money and/or trophies.

Being this is my first Mustang (and a sports car in 15 years) it would not rise to the level of changing the rears completely over as you pointed out. I guess I'll get the Bullitt fronts and rears from Steeda?
Seems the best price?

I believe the Brembo red on the GT350 is RAL 3020, also known as Traffic Red.

If that’s true I’m a happy guy as that’s one of the reasons I choose that shade of red for my Steeda braces - it leaves my options open for matching callipers at a later date

Can you recall where you got the info from ?

Cheers,

I have seen this paint code info on multiple posts here and on some other car forums. No one refuting the info. So it must be accurate.

I bit the bullet and ordered the Bullitt front and rear calipers from Steeda.

Thanks for the tip EFI!

Unless I'm missing something, the whole Bullitt setup looks quite expensive.
Front calipers: $293.54 each
Rear calipers: $166.40 each
Rear caliper brackets: $99.99 each
That's a whopping 1120 dollars. It seems like lot of money for just a fancy colour to me.

To be honest, I did pay a bit more than that for my Euro-compatible red tail lights, so I'm by no means opposed to spending money on aesthetics. But in that case I had no other choice, whereas PP Brembo calipers can be painted for a fraction of the price, and the end result would look just as good.

You are right. They are expensive. I just hated to paint the existing Brembos. Maybe could sell them here?

Agree
with Vald on this, you get zero performance advantage or value.

At the end of the day. Paid 1200 bucks for want a 3 dollar can of paint will give, red calipers.

OH well .....

How difficult would be to paint the calipers on the vehicle? I can cancel the order. They are not shipping till close to 2 weeks.

Are the PP2 rear brakes the same as the Bullitts?

As far as I know yes. I would have asked on the forum if a Bullitt owner wants to swap. I know some don't like it's Christmas vibe.

I did the apex rear coversvin black. To each their own. I think they look way better then the rear two piece brakes back there.
