Thinking about painting my brake calipers. Has anyone done this on a blacked out ram? Pics?
I was thinking redWondered about painting mine black...
I was thinking red
Maybe your right.In my effort to keep mine an #ALLBLACKDODGERAM (I know) I couldn't do red. Only non-black color that will be on the truck is the white license plates and the thin blue line on my licence plate cover to support law enforcement, so I couldn't do red.
Would like to see that!Don't know about painting the calipers, but I was thinking of going more radical. Baer makes 15" rotors for the Silverado. We have the same bolt pattern.
Soooo, I am thinking of buying a set of these rotors, then working with a buddy of mine who has a machine shop to make brackets so I can mount 4-piston Brembo front calipers from the Challenger on my Ram. I have never really been satisfied with the front brakes on my 2019. So, the thought of 15 inch rotors and Brembo 4-piston calipers appeals to me. I also know someone who can make me some custom braided steel brake lines for the front so that I can use these calipers.
If I do this, I will post up some pics. Rockauto sells remanufactured calipers for the 2016 Challenger that are black.
Or have a good body shop paint themFor anyone thinking about doing this, you might want to consider using the G2 Brake Caliper Paint System.
It's an epoxy paint that I used this on my 2015 Mustang GT and it came out very well. A link and a few pics below.

you do know the 2019 rams already have just shy of 15 inch rotors on it already front and back.Don't know about painting the calipers, but I was thinking of going more radical. Baer makes 15" rotors for the Silverado. We have the same bolt pattern.

Did you paint the calipers in place or unbolt them and tie back? I have the red G2 kit coming this week. The truck only has 550 miles so want to get this done before the road and break dust gets too bad. ThanksHere u go. If you need a zoom out picture let me know. These are what i have on the phone.
