Is anybody painting their calipers on these?
I know it’s a truck and calipers are tighter to rim, unlike a sports car, but curious if the group is doing it? And what color if yes?

I had my 2020 MYLR calipers painted orange. I will be painting my CT‘s calipers as well.

I’m leaning orange again for my CT. Though I’d have the ‘Cybertruck’ script vs ‘Tesla‘

Those are beautiful, really like that. Unique fire truck orange almost.

I had my plaid painted red since I had a 22, they were black from factory before tesla switched over to the red. I love the red but feel a special Tesla deserves a special color ?

Do you have a picture of the truck with those? I’d like to see if that pops with the white but I love that!! Wow

The service advisor said painting calipers voids the warranty on brakes and gegen.

Highly unlikely due to it being solely cosmetic.

Tesla can’t just void your warranty. If there’s an issue with brakes, they have to prove that caused the failure. There’s a federal law around that.

lastly, brakes are generally not an issue with Tesla due to regen being used most of the time. Take it to a good shop that uses high heat paint and you’ll be good!

I wish my Cyberbeast came with red Brembo brakes, like my Model 3 Performance. The truck can use better braking. I feel it’s a weak point, for such a heavy truck.
