Recommendations for caliper painting


Recommended Posts

Hi guys,

New to the forum (and Dubai having come from Ireland). I picked up an E60 M5 a few weeks ago and I'd like to have the calipers painted (M-Sport Blue). Can anyone recommend a place that's good for this? Id love to do it myself by the sand/dust levels in the underground at the apartment are horrendous.

Thansk so much

Hi Gordon, we have another senior techy from Ireland @Barry you are not alone now, lolol

For calliper painting, if I may suggest opting for powder coating instead will last very long and also looks nicer than the paint.

My friend has used http://rainbowpowdercoatings.com/ for his wheels and he was pretty happy with the pricing and quality offered

Hi Gaurav - thanks so much for getting back to me so quick. I actually saw Barry's flag and was delighted to see another Irishman. 

I'll give Rainbow a shout on this - thank you!

You learn something new everyday. I thought you folk only spoke Gaelic.

It’s a bastardised form of Gaelic. No fadas, a few English words here and there. My first language was speaking bullshit so I find it hard to communicate with people sometimes 😂

Klingon?

P.S : Hope you were aware of all the issues with the E60 before you bought yours

Thankfully she has been issue free so far but I did my research! Low mileage (120k km) and bought from a BMW salesman ;-) I dont put much mileage on it.
