Lambo techies: Will 560 brakes fit on the Superleggera?

Hey guys,

I need clarification on the title. I want to swap the Superleggera's black calipers with factory yellow ones. There is no stock in my country of yellow calipers, but there is a 560 on the with yellow. Would this be possible as a direct bolt on? Or are they different systems?

Thanks!

Best bet is to check the caliper part numbers at your dealership. If they are the same, then the answer is yes.

I am taking a big guess that the calipers are NOT the same, because I've heard that the 560 CCB system is a lot smoother and improved from the SL. I don't know if it's due to the caliper or the rotor, though. And even if they are different, that does not mean they aren't interchangeable. So basically I did not help at all. Good luck!

Why not just have the calipers painted yellow?

The aftermarket guys here are generally incompetant. I don't want peeling paint on a half mill car(heavy taxes) I can just imagine them trying to rewrite the Lamborghini text on the calipers with a permanent marker
They've done it before with somebody elses car, I almost died laughing.

Some pics.

Thanks guys, I think the yellow calipers would be the finishing touch. I like the fact that it's "stealthy" at the moment, but the yellow would contrast lovely against the dark wheels.
