Painting Calipers, What Color?
We'll just say that my new calipers came red and have clearcoat problems...
Here is what I am thinking.
Keeping them red- BAM there are the brakes
Painting them black- Are there brakes there?
So I dont know what I want. The black for a more stealth look and it would go with my car. OR advertise I have brakes and be sweet.

Re: Painting Calipers, What Color?
If they are stock calipers, they are to small for them to look "sweet".
So I vote paint them black.

Re: Painting Calipers, What Color?
How long before you start another thread asking how to mount them?

Re: Painting Calipers, What Color?
i would say red.
i say red because black calipers wont really look all that good behind your black rims. it will look like your rims have tumors!

You forgot to put your bowl away.
Anyways, I'd paint them black. Unless you left them how they came (red). Otherwise, black. Stealthy. |
