Has anyone had their callipers painted and the land rover letters reapplied? All the cars seem to have the callipers in a sorry state so I was thinking to get them redone.

Sorry all can this be moved to the L405 section please.

The answer is yes, you can clean them up re-paint them & find stickers on eblag to apply.
You'll find plenty of posts on here if you use the search function.
You could get someone else to do it, but I imagine it would be very expensive as its quite labour intensive.

People have successfully used everything from smooth Hammerite through heat resistant paint. Paul,

Easy enough to do. I took mine off and sprayed them.

The wife was away for the weekend...

They look superb Kev.

Aaaaah, nice to see the correct use of a dining table!

Where did you spray them? Kitchen?

My life wouldn't be worth living if I sprayed indoors  Kev

Yes, we all must obey er, SWIMBO

Even spraying in the garage results in everything covered in overspray literally everywhere, I did the aluminium side panels of my revered Quad 5905 speakers in Satin Black, -they came up lovely, so silky smooth after lots of prep and rubbing down between many undercoats, but Jeez! Garage was a total mess!
Now, with 2 cars too big to fit the stupidly tiny doors, it’s now become an unused gym after much expense

But, given patience & time and good prep, it’s amazing the results you can get with a rattle-can, I did a new front grille on my Ford Ranger (Yes, the tacky one with the huge “FORD” on the front -I have no taste, obvs. ) came out great and even managed to perfectly match Ford Boulder Grey, which unhelpfully Ford haven’t made available, along with their orange “Wildtrak” paint. What? So, I can’t even buy a touch-up for stonechips? FFS! Obvs Ford think owners take no pride in their vehicles, unlike FFRR owners. Sorry for the slight thread highjack

Back to caliper painting, well, I cheated and just bought refurbed ones, but it was part of a “big brake” upgrade of my TDV6, which wasn’t easy, but has worked flawlessly since, but yes big red shiny brakes look lovely, so go for it -when the weather warms up!  “If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it” -where’s the fun in that?
