    Looking for pictures of red or yellow callipers on specifically a Grigio Titanium F355 Spider/GTS/Berlinetta or other color combination cars are ok but I'm thinking of having mine painted and it's a Grigio Titanium.

    Thanks!!

    really? Paint your factory (black I assume) calipers?

    What sort of prices are you being quoted? Can the repaint the word "Ferrari"?

    Nice pic but if ya spin that picture 180, then that will make an even better picture with the horse facing the right way, and it will look like ya have taken a picture from the other side;)

    As soon as I get to work i'm going to photoshop that exactly like you said! It wasn't an intentional pic so I didn't even think to get the horse right.

    The red Ferrari branded calipers in the image I posted above were a factory option. This is on a 1998 F355 Berlinetta - Here are the specifics:

    Red Brake Calipers: $580.00
    Drilled Brake Discs: $1104.00

    Confused - did you buy this 355 new w/ factory option on or purchase the car 2nd hand and then put on the option/brakes? Reason for my asking is I'm curious whether you saw much performance difference once you went to drilled discs?

    Thanks

    These were a factory option when the car was new... Sorry no frame of reference otherwise. The discs look identical to the stock ones, just with holes this time. The calipers look the same too. I think this is mostly cosmetic.
