Default Red BBKs are played out. Where is the yellow?

On every BBK site I've been to (Brembo, Stoptech, Willwood, et. al.), their BBKs only seem to come in red. Red is way too common and I'd personally want yellow (roughly the color of the 05 AE) but they're impossible to find. Where are they.

that's i was thinking. red is really played out. The yellow bbk on the black porshes look good. That's what i was aiming for. I still want just stock copper brembos though.

I know AP racing has yellow, or at least they did. BamBam has yellow calipers. StopTech I think might've offered it in the past as special order. Otherwise, I'd just send the calipers out to be custom powdercoated.

I agree.

Do black, if you want to be a little bit less common than red. For the record, I only like red and black for BBK's.

Not sure how "played out" and BBK can be used in the same sentence.

Burnt orange calipers will look sick, the yellow is pure sex. Good thread.
