    Brake Caliper suggestions? 2013 A5 S-line

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    Hey guys,

    New Audi buyer here, haven't had my Audi A5 for very long (bought in Aug '16). All I've done so far is smacked on a carbon fiber trunk lip and upgraded the OEM brake rotors to cross drilled+slotted rotors. Took a good look at the rotors after installation today only to realize that my brake calipers are super ugly, they really stand out now.

    What would you all suggest for changing them - a g2 paint kit or an actual change of calipers (if a change, then where to buy online or in Canada).

    Thanks everyone

    G2 is paint, so you can def do that to make them look better. Or have them professionally painted/powdercoated. Did mine in Yellow.

    Unless you want to upgrade to a real Big Brake kit, i'd just paint if i was you.

    I had mine wrapped in a reflective red! Looks great and way easier to maintain than paint

    Yes! I've had mine wrapped for about 6 months without any issues!
