Want to change my callipers from blue to possibly gold / yellow.
Anyone know the code or name of this - I assume it’s a BMW colour.
Thanks

Co-ask.. did you just paint or buy the whole set?

Could it be the Austin Yellow?

Nah it's gold. It's part of the Ceramic Brake Option on M3/M4.

I’m curious about this as well. Are there any good options or covers to change the color of the break calipers on a 2019 m2c?

It's called Meridian Gold. It's an un-indexed color so you will have a lot of trouble finding the exact paint code. You could try to match it as best you can or simply buy a set of the gold CCB calipers from BMW. They should be identical and a direct swap.

Take them off and have a body shop repaint them whatever color you want. Simple as that.

Do you know if aftermarket paint (or anodized, I think that's another option) will stand up to track temps better than stock paint?

Depends on what type of paint you use. They have special paint for high heat applications and they have different temperature ratings. I have no idea what type of paint was used on my calipers and didn't bother to ask since I don't track my car. I had them done by TAG motorsports:

Cool thanks for the info... I saw a LBB M2 with yellow calibers and it looked great! Thinking about it especially since the blue calipers are fading already.
