Im planning on painting my front calipers and painting the rdx covers...My question would me im looking for a caliper logo that says "Acura" instead of "brembo" which i found nad his willing to do for 7 dollars. But his asking for me to measure it. Does anyone have measurements of a tls caliper? I measured the rdx and they are 3.5 by .5 can anyone double check this? and what about the front brembo ones?

A-spec rims on and this is how they look 
Oh and BTW I did my brakes with new rotors and i didn't have to remove the cover it has enough room and flex to get the caliper on and off just fine.

Another genius idea born. Thanks man for your thread.......
btw I saw you on I-80E in NJ last Sunday, your car looks awesome on the highway. I actually noticed your calipers while the wheels were spinning. I thought they were the 6-speed Brembos. I was on a white Honda CBR1000RR, you wouldn't have recognized me so I didn't want to be a weirdo, lol.

Burning Brakes
Just placed my order for 4 for the TL.
Considering ordering for my MDX as well. It should fit right?

How did you guys do it on the front brakes? the rear I followed the exact pic but for the fronts do I use the same "points" off the caliper cover, just the top and the bottom? Any pics? I wanna make sure I'm not applying rtv to something I shouldnt be

I got these almost a week a go. I did a test fitment on the back and it looks good. The front is a bit different though for the 5AT. Now, i know for the front i need to bend the tabs, but will i be placing the RTV on the callipper itself rather than like the back where i will be placing RTV on the bracket? For the front, is this safe? Lol- i guess i am over thinking it

Funny I had all 4 for a month or so now but because I don't know how to do the fronts they just sit there :/ so I'm in the same boat as you !
Ive had my set of four for a month now but have only done the rears. I also don't know how to do the fronts an am afraid ov apply rtv to an area that I shouldn't! S

^ i am going to wait to hear from the 5AT ppl that have done it. I see the pics but wanted to get some Steps how it is supposed to be done
I went on and did the front and back passenger side. Just couldn't wait lol. For the front- the tabs need to adjust for the cover to fir the caliper. Now, i had a little bit of hard time deciding where to apply the RTV but after a few tries placing the cover on, i applied the RTV where i saw scratched on the back of the cover. Hope that makes sense.
