I only have a few things I would change on an almost perfect car for me.

Front Calipers painted red perfect.
Rear Calipers painted red crap!!!

So where do I get a pair painted to the same standard as the fronts?
Is there an exchange service available?

Also has anybody developed a sun shade for the infotainment screen when I have the roof down, to save the guess work.

We've used these people for calipers, and been very impressed: https://www.bcs-automotive.co.uk/

Of course, you have to remove and strip them, and then reassemble.

I have nothing to add on the sun screen I'm afraid.

They know the correct red for Jaguar brakes.

Andy at Unique detailing did ours, painted on the vehicle! They are near Toddington, just of jct 12, M1, great job and around £350 iirc. Although he will get New Decals, we provided our own, purchased from the same place he uses anyway! He knows the colours too.
