Forza Horizon 5 will finally let you paint brake calipers

Forza Horizon 5 brings a lot of fresh new player-requested content to the series while also flexing the Xbox Series X/S's capabilities.

In a recent Forza stream, Playground Games has great news for die-hard fans: FH5 will let users paint their brake calipers. It seems like a small thing, but it's something that fans have been asking about for a long while. The devs had recently pushed back this customization option due to the sheer amount of work involved (they had to re-model each individual car). But Forza Horizon 5 is the culmination of lots of work across the board including huge new dynamic localized weather systems, new advanced physics optimizations, and a new global illumination shadow system complete with crazy high-res 12k resolution renders.

Playground confirmed the following customization options in the stream:

• Over 100 new rims
• Over 100 new visual upgrade parts
• Thousands of performance upgrades
• Can paint brake calipers
• Set your pronoun
• Choose your voice
• Lots more customization options
