Does bmw offer painted calipers? Red,orange... Etc and how much do they cost?

jwzimm · 01-18-2016, 03:35 PM

Nope. You get blue for the regular brakes and gold with the carbon's.

myzmak · 01-18-2016, 03:49 PM

These are the M Performance ones which are available as a port installed option for 2s, 3s, 4s, etc. They wouldn't even fit the brakes on an F8x.

Check realoem. The F3X M-Performance and M-Sport (370mm) calipers are the same as the M3/M4 standard calipers.

The rears are not interchageable: http://www.realoem.com/bmw/enUS/part...&q=34218046261

The rears of the F3X 335i M-Performance (and some M-Sport depending on region) is the same part as the standard F8X rear caliper.

I believe you can buy them for about 1k from getbmwparts. Or if you're inclined, remove yours send to IND and they will paint any color you want with emblem for about 350.

The link I posted is for the F80 rear calipers (P/N: 34218046261). That P/N does not agree with what you posted (P/N: 34216799461). Not sure what the difference is but that I what I was pointing out.

Thanks for the help

IM2C · 01-18-2016, 06:59 PM

While it may be played out I'd opt for red calipers.

Yup that color

This is something you'd probably be able to do through the BMW Individual ManuFaktur program... $$ though.

Again, F80 POST doesn't disappoint.

Surprised the paint code for the gold calipers wasn't asked for.

Parts for a different car that are not offered on the F80 from the factory (which is your original question)

Ghosn · 01-19-2016, 12:47 AM

I asked my dealer if it were possible for BMW to paint the brakes a different color when I ordered my M3 last month. He told me "Yes, but it's a $5k option" !!! I told him 'Thanks, but no thanks".
