Calipers Painted and Wound Down a Little

[Coby.]

After Buying the Paint ages and ages ago I actually decided to Paint my Calipers Today as the 2118's show off the Calipers more then 182 Wheels did (Only done Fronts so far)
I know everyone will say Black would have been better BUT I was expecting it to be a little darker than it is but I'm still happy

I also decided I wanted the Front a touch Lower so gave it a few more turns towards the Earth

Hope you like

Looks nice.
Love they wheels.

Exhaust catches on certain things already and I've just taken it another -10mm I think so its going to Fun without going any lower.... I live in the Sticks aswell so Roads are Shocking

2118's suit 1*2's soooooooo well. Nice little touch painting calipers and I would have chosen the same colour, stands out way more than black!

It's on GAZ Coilovers but don't tell anyone
Got at a Bargain Price so couldn't resist

See the Link Fella.... Front is only a Few mm Lower now so looks pretty much the same

looking good mate, looks pretty low now! any scraping issues?

Just driven from Home to Norwich and not had any Scraping yet but Riverside Car park used to give me problems before I've wound it down so that may be a No No from now on

Cheers to everyone else

once you had had black you never go back

 

[MillerLight]

once you had had black you never go back

you cant judge how clean black ones are though. they always look dirty

 

[paul]

you could say they dont show the muck!

who am i kidding - like mine actually see brake dust

 

[Coby.]

Timmay reckons you've gone back quite a few times and he ain't black

 

[paul]

im a lover not a fighter! but timmay is a dreammer!

 

[renclio]

lol and that is not spam?

Cars looking good mate i personally would have painted the calipers green for something a bit different

 

[Coby.]

Not into all this Bright Colour Stuff though TBH

I'm sticking with Blue and Anthracite for my car

 

[paul]

Bump

 

[Ian_182]

I quite like the look of that

 

[MillerLight]

every company has its version of "Anthracite", from almost silver to almost black. bet wheel referb people have a git of a time matching each

 

[Coby.]

Indeed...... I think my Wheels are in the Trophy Colour - Ixell something or other as they are one of the sets D4ve had made direct from speedline

 

[Leeshez]

Sweet.

 

[B5 BDJ]

Love Arctic 182's. Carbon splitter is awsomeness.

 

[Fletcher]

looking good mate.

 

[Soph]

Can tell with the fella's front black calipers if they are clean because he powdercoated them, they shine after a clean.
