Brake caliper damaged.
Hey guys quick question
Took my car to get my brake pads changed couple of days ago. Car is in prestine shape overall with 0 swirl of scratches on the car. I take really good care of my car, including the calipers. One of my caliper looks like it was dropped or scuffed during the brake pad installation. Should I live with it or is there any sticker or touch up paint for my orange calipers?
Thanks

I'd be right back at the shop that did the work and show them what I'm seeing. They were the last ones touching your calipers I assume? If so, I'd be pretty adamant for them to make it right.

Got pics?
Yes, go back and have a chat with the shop.
If you use them regularly, they should make it right.
Although not sure how right it will be since I don’t think there’s touch up paint for the calipers. It’s a different color than molten pearl and not like you can get touch up paint from lexus. At least I'm not aware.
Really right would mean a new caliper. Don’t see them buying that...
Good luck.

Can you post pics?
I wonder what happened?
Where did you have it done? Lexus dealership?
