    It seems to me that the paint on my Modena's parking brake caliper is not holding up well. The car is a bit over one year old and I remember the caliper being more black before. Has anyone else noticed this ?

    Is the caliper steel or aluminum? You can use a magnet to determine if its steel.

    i have had my 360 for almost 3 years now. i have not seen any paint deterioration on my brake calipers. Arent the brake calipers supposed to say "Ferarri" on them? Yours don't.

    Here is a picture of mine:

    Yes, I mean the rear caliper for the parking brake. I wonder if it is easy to remove these to repaint them.
