I am happy with my factory set up.... Know I will need pads / rotors in the next 5k - 10k miles. Is there an exchange for a caliper refinish? Mine are factory black but worn....

What do you mean exchange? Like take your old ones to the dealer for a credit toward new ones? If so, then........

With that said, Tim (search user gota911) did a great write-up on refinishing the calipers. He did his in red but you can do black, etc..

Check out this likn. It is the thread Dell mentioned above. If you have any questions, post them here and I'll try to answer them.

You might also be interested in the "companion" thread below. Your could paint both at the same time and save yourself some time by hot having to jack up the car and removing the wheels a second time. The pics on the first page are rather grainy but there are better pics on page 2.

That's the one!

Tim, have you done this to your Accord yet?

OUCH!!! Damn, you are beating me up this early in the morning???? I haven't even finished my first gallon of DD coffee!

No, I haven't. They are a nice looking silver or platinum (yeah right!) so I want to keep them stock. I don't want my "ricer buddies" to accuse me of trying to make my car look like a German car, or as they call it a "kraut kar."
