What do you recon is the best colour to paint these to go with a silver 172, cant decide... Well its accually that renault silver that looks slightly greeny/silver. Anyone got any pics of theirs with painted calipers i wouldnt mind a butchers.

Silver is best IMHO

I've got better pictures on my other computer if you want more.

Hang on just a minute... Is that one of Gareth's cars actually away from THE garage

 

[Gareth]

lol, i should move somewhere without a garage really

 

[Jayclemo]

looking good lads may go for that my self...

 

[Jayclemo]

....also the wheels

 

[Gareth]

The wheels are full of win, I'd have them again if I ever get another 1*2, love them. I should have kept that car, definitely regret selling it.

 

[Jayclemo]

What they called mate gunna search for some. How come you sold it? Ive only had mine few months i love it

Did someone just ask what Turinis are?

It's a new age.

They're Speedline Turinis.

As far as callipers go on Mk2 Clios, unless you have four-pots, keep them black. No one likes to see your ugly Laguna callipers.

Black! Absolute must!

 

[Jewson172]

Keep them silver.

 

[Austin-182]

4 pots or dont bother IMO

 

[robbygraham]

silver or black on a silver wheel

Done mine yellow, looks pretty good against anthracite wheels

Exactly what i thought when i read it haha!

On topic, black.

 

[Kieran..]

silver.

I need to paint mine. The previous owner painted mine bright yellow. They look poo but they didn't even do a decent job of painting them either.

 

[Keith185]

Black, won't look dirty when they're caked in brake dust

 

[Jamie16v]

Do people actually spray them or just hammerite? I know the finish won't be as good with hammerite but its a brake caliper...

 

[b33fy172]

Anthracite.

I like that with the silver calipers. Really nice.

 

[jenic]

I had mine black.

Like said they are nothing to show off, but the brown rusty look needs getting rid of.

 

[Craigus]

Black or silver.

Anything else looks silly unless they are 4 pots or better.
