Default brembo paint for chips

does anyone have some type of touch up paint for the brembos? It seem like rocks might have gotten caught between the spoke of my wheels & calipers since the wheels are so close the calipers.....there is a decent amount of chips on them, is this happening to anyone else?

I powdercoated mine a different color, but I hear that honda inca gold is as close as you can get.

I have this problem too!

2 questions: #1 How well does inca gold match
#2 How long was the downtime on your car when you were getting the brakes done 2003z? And where did you get the Brembo Logos to go over the powder coating?

I can answer #2. I am an airline pilot in regular life, so when I work, I am gone for 1-6 days at a shot. Also though, I am home for several days at a shot. If you coordinate and send them to me when I am home (usually get next months schedule by the 23rd), It takes me 1-2 days and I send them back 2nd day fedex., overnite for $10 extra, if you really need them. so depending on how you send them to me, your shipping time plus 3-4 days. (I'm in 30052 for shipping calcs.)

As for question #1, it is a perfect match. Some dumb@ss at Wheels America banged one of my front calipers while putting the spare on when I took a curbed rim in to be fixed. This was in May, '03, so I was likely the first to go on the hunt for matching touch-up paint. I, too, came to the Honda Inca Gold (after seeing one of the Civics on the road) and picked up a bottle at the local Honda dealer. They may not have it in stock anymore, but they can surely still get it. My chip was not that big, so I don't know how this paint will hold up on larger ships; it isn't really designed for high temp apps like brakes, but worse comes to worse, you'll just have to re-do the touch-up once in a while.

Default Brembo Touch Up Paint

I found this reference on the internet:

... I have heard that Honda Inca Pearl, paint code Y-61P, part number 08703-Y61PPAH is a dead-on match for the Brembo gold.

Somewhat confusing as this reference refers to "Inca Pearl" vice "Inca Gold"

When I did a search at a Honda Site, Inca Gold is not listed but Inca Pearl is listed?

Any thoughts?

Thanks
Major

Default Brembo Touch-Up Paint

I did a search at:

www.paintscratch.com

and it is "Inca Pearl" any way it looks/appears to be gold in color. The paint is for the 2001 Honda Civic, code: Y-61P.

Hope this helps!
