What colour calipers on a black 172?

[electricfurnace]

Black 172 with 182 anthracite cup pack wheels, wanting to paint my calipers, was thinking:

Black
Yellow
or Silver

Leaning towards yellow but in the abscence of any other yellow on the car might look a bit tacky?

Any one got any pics of 182 wheeled cars with painted calipers?

What ya reckon?

done mine bright orange but then I've got black Pro race 1.2's on mine

Red - boy racer with painted drums!
Silver - tidy up
Green - Skoda's
Blue - seen on many fords
Yellow - been done alot on clio's
Black - stealth
Purple - the goth look (would only go with black)
Pink - balls of steel

Choices choices

Silver unless you already have a colour scheme going on.

Purple sounds effing cool though.

Coz the fronts are still half decent tbh.

But they're standard.

Anyone with an RS has them.

If you've got Brembos, or 4pots, then I can see why you'd want them to be noticed, but standard, nope.

It's like having a massive 'ALPINE' sticker, when you've got a standard headunit...

Hardly but I see your point My yellow calipers add to the colour sceme though and work well and the disks are hardly a lame size so they look decent imo.

Does it matter if they're standard it's all about expression and individuality even even if you follow the crowd in a world of sheep

Who cares what make the calipers are, not everyone has painted ones. All down to personal preference.

Mate do what you like its your motor. Just ask people to post some pics of their painted calipers and go from there.
