What was used was Rosso Tiziano Red (199A is the paint code).
Thanks for the color and code. It makes sense that it has an Italian name.

I was experiencing feelings of strong hate toward the natural finish on the electronic parking brake. Decided to do something about it. Added a few small touches prepping the car for the next set of wheels. Threw on some JLT rock blockers as well. These little things are unsung heroes....

Where did you find the wrap? I don’t see it on Bemaro’s website.

I had this done locally by my detailer. Bemaro does sell a nice out of the box setup though. Email him direct if you do not see it.

Round 2 of parking brake painting went perfect this time. I had issues with the original powdercoat color not matching to my satisfaction. This on top of me having to shave down the outer caliper and bolts to clearance 18" forgestars required some new paint. I had them painted this time RACE RED with white brembo under the clear. They turned out amazing and only the very well trained GT500 eyes would notice the caliper mod. I think Race Red is an exact match, if not then close enough.

Has anyone disassembled the parking brake and had it powdercoated? Anyone know a powdercoat color that matches? And whats with the 5 point fasteners! who the heck has those....I thought about just taking those 2 outside bolts off and powercoating the outside half, but since its a weird bolt cant even test my theory.
Do you know the paint code for the caliper paint?
Are the 500 callipers the same red as the Brembo Bullitt callipers ? If so I got it from a couple of forum users that the code is RAL3020 (Traffic Red).

Following that I choose to have my underbody Steeda stuff done in 3020 on the off chance that I might swap to the Bullitt callipers at some point in the future (and I have all the suspension done in 3020 on another car I am building).

I know reds and photos don't mingle well, but indoors :

Outdoors, non direct sunlight :

Please don't take my word for it / please do your own checks etc - but for anyone thinking of doing the callipers in future, starting the conversation with your powder guy using 3020 could be a good starting point in a language he understands :like:

There may be a close or exact match with powder but I beleive the brembos are painted from factory/oem...I know for sure C7 brembos are because there is over spray on the seals....they paint them assembled
