Tesla Red Clipper Brakes

Sorry for my naïveté, but what is this "Red Clipper" you speak of?

Check over on the Tesla Forum. I did a feature on DIY red calipers. Came out great. They are $3k to buy.

FWIW, when we ordered my wife's just delivered S70D, I asked about getting red brake calipers installed as a special order. Was told that there were no exceptions, only for P85D. So options are the caliper covers (which do not have the TM lettering/logos) or painting and then applying aftermarket high-heat decals (as noted above).

The EvAnnex ones look fantastic, but you can definitely tell it's not OEM. I actually really like the look, but that's a matter of personal preference.

$35.00 Red Epoxy paint from Amazon.
$12.00 Red T Sticker from internet vendor
$8.00 Tesla Stickers from Ebay
2 hours of my time to jack up each side remove wheels and paint and apply stickers.

link to EBay seller of Tesla stickers? Did you remove the calipers when you painted? Do you have a link for Amazon paint?

I had a local rim repair shop do mine. $200 and they supplied the paint and stickers. I did the stickers in grey to match my rims though instead of the factory white.

I might have done it myself, but I don't have a floor jack anymore....and it was totally worth it to just pay someone else.

G2 system is great

MagesticSound and ddimit - what did you use for jack stands to lift the car to remove all 4 wheels at one time to paint the calipers?

Also, MajesticSound, did you put a clear coat on afterwards?
