Painted My Brake Calipers

[boomerbang2006]

Of course i did them the standard yellow but only because they match sooooo well with the oddy,as usual all comments welcome.

Looks good, well painted. I did mine in orange.

Have fun cleaning them!

Why show off nasty Laguna callipers?

Get them black or silver at a push.

 

[boomerbang2006]

They where a pain to clean,yes,but the wheel was worse,covered in grease and brake dust.
I didnt know they where laguna calipers?,and they have to be yellow:approve:,no other colour will do.

I meant from now on, they get covered in brake dust!

I only have small hands so i can get in between the alloys,no problem :approve:

dont look that bad, but im really not a fan of making standard calipers stand out. black or silver for me

 

[boomerbang2006]

I think it just adds a bit of colour,contrasts really well with the blue of the car and the black tyres.

Doesn't look too bad that mate, not sure I would have gone for the colour but nice job!

Don't normally like bright colours but looks quite good on yours.

Works nicely with the Selective Yellow fogs there.

Nice job, but personally think subtle works better on mk2s. Here were my Wilwoods in body colour.

EDIT: 2012, really? Who's responsible for this insanity.
