Painting brake calipers BMW Estoril Blue in Vancouver?

Hey Folks,

I would like to get the calipers on my Z4M painted in the blue that some M cars come stock with. I believe the closest colour match is Estoril Blue Metallic.

Is there some place in Vancouver that can paint calipers to a good quality using a close colour match to the BMW Estoril Blue paint?

Cheers,
Eamonn aka eggman

Just buy the heat resistant spray can in a matching colour and do it yourself or get them powder coated... regular car body paint won’t work

You're not going to get "Estoril Blue Metallic" off the shelf in a VHT paint.

I'm surprised no one has mentioned the best caliper paint available, of which they make color matched caliper paint to your car.

Only way to go when painting calipers, I've used everything else available and nothing stands up to G2
