For the guys repainting their Brembos.

There are Brembo vinyl decals on Amazon that look just like the originals that came on the calipers from the factory. I believe these could work great on repainted calipers, and only cost $6.00 for a page with 3 large and I think 5 small. I have some coming and will post how they work.

Nice to know the decals are available.

If you're painting the Brembos, and the original decals are good, just tape over the decals before applying the paint.
This is what mine look like after almost 4 years and 35k miles. A little dirty and faded some, but overall they still look good.

Thanks

No; optional.

Brembos were an option. You had to have the Performance Package which consisted of the Brembos and Limited slip differential. This option was only available with the 5 speed model SS.

Boydie. Did you see my last post on this other thread? https://www.chevyhhr.net/forums/show...t=48169&page=2
It was directed to you.

Thanks Fireman I did miss the post. I have the Performance seats and love them. I love this SS. Handling is much better too. Curves are a cinch much faster than the posted signs. I have the Traction Control too.

My daughter dusted a Mustang yesterday but I wasn't with her. She loves to drive it.

That is a good idea too, never crossed my mind to do it that way. I was trying to figure out how long it would take to mask all those complex letters.
