The paint code is definitely on the A-pillar sticker - it just doesn't say "paint code" next to it, it's just a four-letter code.

I don't think it's on the strut under the bonnet.

Wicked Red being another name for Diablo Red. "Diablo" meaning "Devil", so maybe it's a French-to-English translation on ServiceBox?

OK guys, been doing a bit more work on the Wiki, specifically to do with engines and interiors. I also got some better photos of some of the alloy wheels for the Coupes, as some of the ones I had were sub-par.

However, I noticed we've got nothing in there about brakes - this is info that could be very useful, but I know sweet FA about 'em :cheesy:

I'm looking for information about sizes of brake discs - I know that they seem to come in varying sizes dependent on whether or not you have Brembo brake calipers or not. What sizes are used, and what variant of 406 is each size used on?

Also, I know of Brembo calipers, but who makes the calipers for all the other cars? I heard the name Lucas - is that it, or are there others? Which cars did the Brembos appear on?

Anything special people might need to know about brake pads?

Only the V6 coupés I think
<steve_earwig> I think this forum is more about keeping our cars going with minimal outlay than giving our cars more reason to go bang

Brembos were also on the 2.2 HDi Coupes, 305mm disc size.
Lucas front calipers were on the later model Coupes, possibly 52 plates onwards or maybe 03, the replaced the Brembos and took 283mm discs.
