caliper color opinion?
caliper color opinion?
So I'm replacing the rotors on my car and thought that I might take the chance to paint my calipers. My car is orange, and I was thinking that a lime green might look nice with it. The rims are stock. I don't want to look rice. Anyone with an orange car paint their brakes?
I think red looks like **** on stock Calipers, Black makes them look clean (i painted mine black)
id go black, unless you want to be noticed, then maybe Purple, Line green would be too bright, IMO

I was against red for awile thinking stock shouldn't go there. Then I got some new rotors and went red, they look good and I can always change it later. As a rule I always repaint my calipers every spring when I change over to my summer tires.
Mine are like a sky blue(original owner, not my doing) and I hate them. At least my steelies are covering them, for now. I like the lime green idea, well, I like lime green, so maybe that's a biased opinion.
Maybe a subtle aluminum-ish color?

The green idea came about because it compliments the orange - that and I saw green paint for sale. I guess it would be more of a candy apple green, rather than a lime green. Black or red seem like a safer choice though, but I could always just repaint them.
