Caliper colour

  1. Evening all.

    Im having my wheels repainted black in a couple of weeks so I'm going to repaint my calipers while the wheels are off as they have been done by the previous owner and aren't very good (now chipped and no brembo decal)

    now originally they were silver but now red.

    My question is what colour should i do them, i really cant decide, was all for doing something different but now not sure.

    Any help and thoughts would be great. My car is a 225 lux in ultra red by the way.
     
  2. You can't go wrong with either colour in my opinion. Both colours would stand out behind the black wheels.

    I'm doing mine this week, currently they are very poor colour of blue and have chips on them. I have decided to do them silver with new black stickers (when I find some)
     
  3. Red on red for me isnt right.u suggest yellow
     
  4. Personally it'd have to be Silver, Grey or Black.

    I really don't like coloured brakes now, even a few of the manufacturers are moving away from them too.

    A bit of the pot calling the kettle black right enough as the misses Abarth has bright red Brembo's lol.
     
  5. Gold :smile: go for gold calipers they would look phenomenal on a red car with black wheels!!!
     
  6. I've had mine refurb'd in black
     
  7. Yellow or Red get my vote...
     
  8. agreed gold would look nice, thats what colour I'll be painting mine, to go with my freshly painted anthracite r26 wheels.
