What colour calipers?

[Chambo88]

Im planning on repainting my calipers. Bored of the silver look and really dont wanna paint them silver again as it just gets dirty and looks poo
so just want some opinions on what mite look good.
Options are blue, although it mite clash. yellow or red?
Not sure.

what do you think?

and opinions on the car are welcome

yellow looks good against a blue car. did mine yesterday in yellow.

not red, i hate red calipers unless they are brembo of course! blue as long as it was a perfect colour match to the car. dont know if that could of blue with black wheels would pull of yellow! maby with huge calipers and 300mm disks it would!

 

[Chambo88]

any pics carrmrc96?

 

[rosskerr]

gloss black

 

[carrmrc96]

No sorry, i'll take some tomorrow. Ive seen a few pics on here but cant think where i found them

 

[Chambo88]

did a few fotoshops of different colours.

This is how it looks atm:

Red

Blue in same shade which wont actually be possible as my cars a weird colour.

And finally yellow:

opinions please. and gloss black or silver aint an option cos they are boring

 

[carrmrc96]

looking at that now. I think maybe the red looks better because your wheels are black and your car is a dark colour.

 

[Chambo88]

i agree tbh
red looks quite decent.

 

[Chambo88]

anyone else for opinions?

 

[Coby.]

Black

 

[Jat_172cup]

try gold?

 

[Chambo88]

does hammerite smooth come in gold?

 

[m4rkie23]

this colour?

 

[Monaco Sean]

I like gold on blue, but not sure with dark wheels!

 

[rk2009]

I'd say leave them alone to be honest.

 

[Jordi17]

I actually like the red tbh, go for it!

 

[krewy]

leave silver tbh! other colours just dont look right if u have no others on your car it would look good in red but also do the 16v writing on your bullets red aswell

That would look awful on a blue car.

 

[Chambo88]

Decided red was the colour so here are some night pics cos didnt manage to get any pics in the day yet.

I think it stands out quite well and the blue compliments the red. pretty chuffed with how they look tbh

cheers for the comments and any more welcome

 

[Chambo88]

Proper pics in the day

i like them, looks good. You lowered 40mm?

 

[m4rkie23]

your drivers side wiper is as close to the window as mine....

 

[Chambo88]

the wipers need changing. are ur wipers both 21 or different sizes?

 

[Chambo88]

Cheers and its lowered on eibach sportlines so roughly 40mm all around.

 

[m4rkie23]

yeah both 21's. mine need changing too.
want the bosch aero's, but they are a tad pricey

 

[Chambo88]

was tempted by those other ones in the group buy although the sizes are strange. apparently they are good and so are the ones from tescos
