Hello

I recently purchased a 2019 Seat Leon, I’m looking to paint the callipers to match the colour of the car, but I not sure if it will void my warranty?

could some one please help me.

I suppose it depends what you mean by paint. If eg I sent my calipers off for professional stripping, powder coating and rebuilding. If they failed I'd expect the warranty to be with whoever did the rebuild. Trub is, if you spray them yourself ... or use a brush and some hammerite. I've seen people get paint between the guide pins and when it's dried it's hindered the pins moving. On inspection, I can't imagine them paying out on warranty. Having said that, I'd still expect them to honour it on the rest of the car, pads, discs, etc.
