The brake calipers which say "acura" on them, do we know who makes them brembo??? also will they fit on a 99tl? Thanks.

I dunno about the real "acura" calipers, but I was going to try the vinyl "acura" caliper decals. They are only $9 bucks shipped on ebay so I thought it would be worth a try...

Vinal decals on a caliper will "toast" and flake off.

that's what I thought, but the guy uses 8 year vinyl... whatever that means. Plus he has real good feedback. I dunno. I think $9 bucks is worth a try. I'm painting my calipers black with the red acura vinyl. If not I think I could use it as a stencil and paint it red on there...

i saw those on ebay too. i also seen someone with an rsx that had them. he said he put those vinyl stickers on a few months ago and its still in clean condition. since i have my calipers painted red, im gonna get white or black lettering soon. i dont think its that bad at all to do, its only 9 bucks and really easy installation.

use teh vinyl as a stencil. paint will last longer.

as for teh calipers they are brembos, but i dont think they are compatable with out custom fabrication

You'd need to have a caliper bracket custom fabricated. Probably cheaper to go with a BBK instead of the fabrication work, plus the cost of the OEM calipers, and new pads.

i have the vinyl "acura" decal and i never used them. ill sell it for 5 bucks shipped if anyone want it. PM me.

Ok here's the way to do it without spending a shitload just for calipers with a logo. Simply paint the caliper which ever color you want the logo to be. Once it dries get a vinyl ACURA decal put it on the caliper(make sure it's very dry) then go over it with a couple or few layers of the color for the caliper.

Yep that would work.

I had my stock calipers powder coated so I don't plan on spraying any paint, but its a good idea for those who are interested.
