Painting Callipers

[whereami]

I own the Gun metal grey type s and been shaking my head at a few things that need pimping up, the Callipers need a revamp, Painting them seems a good start, what colour would work best? I like the Red look but open to suggestions. if you have a photo of yours too stick it on here, cheers guys.

whats the colour of your wheels? mine calipers are in gold with white decals

Mine are black, to avoid to much distraction off my gunmetal wheels.

But probably a nice dark bronze would be nice too.

3d brembo caliper covers! ha
i got a set in the other day ,,, still to add them on they look a lot more realistic than my mates 350z oem brembos!
only reason i got them is the brake caliper gets covered in dust and looks ***** all the time so this is to keep it clean!

I will be painting mine when the weather improves stock Silver for me

I have the same as Whereami with stock dark greyish wheels , I cant stand red but I think because of the gun metal grey car paint that red will be the best colour to go.
My Prelude is silver with black wheels so I painted them Silver , match's perfect..

But where did you guys get those white Honda decals from ?

Got mine from eBay, same place I get all my car parts they're on special heat proof vinyl as I imagine the regular stuff would get mullered pretty quick. I'll try find a link, was at least a year ago I got mine now though!

Red or Yellow, but just an opinion though.
