2015 Denali Brake caliper question

[Glava2876]

The front brake calipers and brackets on my 2015 Denali 1500 came from the factory painted black.

The rear brake calipers are also black, but the brackets are unpainted?

I'm going to paint the rear brackets black to match the calipers, but just wondered if this is the way that they all came -or did the line just mess up on the rear brake caliper brackets on mine?

Wow, I thought my truck was black!

I have not changed anything or toned down the chrome.

Did you paint the rear caliper brackets?

Thanks,

Nice build thread!

How do you like the GM Borla Exhaust? That may be my first change.

Advice on this, use a die grinder or dremel with wire wheel to take down some of the surface rust, clean with acetone, and i painted my brake parts with some Rustolem high heat. It is basically BBQ paint.

wanted to stay with gm parts so the borla with black tips was the way to go. Still have my wilwood big brakes in the den boxed up til spring.

I like the idea of it being a GM offering too, so that that it should be a good fit and I'm sure it is a little louder, but not crazy.

I had a Cadillac CTS performance coupe (3.6, not the "V") and installed a Magnaflow Cat back exhaust. You had to cut the factory exhaust behind the cats and it sounded good, but it created a vibration that I never was able to totally eliminate -what's the Borla installation like?

Installation is pretty easy, did it in my garage without a jack.....I don't suggest doing it that way, but I didn't want to wait for my friend to return my jack and stands.
