I recently shipped @tagmotorsports my calipers for paint. The stock blue color doesn't seem to match anything on the car, inside or out. My car is BSM and i felt that a gloss black paint job would be a really nice way to subtly improve the looks and have everything flow together better.







As you can see i have a black theme going



Update 5/30 Install completed!







Before/After:

Looks great! How much did they charge you and how long was the turnaround?

I was quoted $750 if i brought the car in. Since i live in New Jersey i obv mailed them in. So i ended up paying $400 plus tax and shipping. They got them on a Tuesday and mailed them back out that Firday, so i guess a 4 day turn around. add shipping time to that (there and back) and you're looking at two weeks more or less. could have done it locally much faster but i was quoted $1300 by auto couture which i think is way too much, and i didn't feel like having some random place i don't trust fucking up the ///M logo decals so i just mailed them to TAG. I'm happy with that decision. My mechanic who's lift i've been taking up this whole time probably isn't too thrilled but he's a friend so i'm sure he'll forgive me.

Yellow's a great choice. Looks great on any color M2 in my opinion.

That's not bad at all. I got quotes in the area and they all averaged around $1,200-1,300 which is insane. I also daily drive mine so yeah, I kind of need the calipers to stay on the car.

Our cars are very similar but I want red.
