Caliper Colors

**Kryptonicneonium** · 03-16-2006, 05:13 AM

Alright I need some pros opinions on this one...... I recently got my Tein S-Tech's, my wheels are on the way, and my GR-2's will be ordered this weekend..... my dilemma is what color to paint the calipers. My G is Titanium Pearl and I was thinking of color-matching them to the car, goin with a glossy black, or pushin it and goin off the wall with a prowler purple or something of the sort. Any opinions are helpful, lemme know what you guys think

use a bright color so they stand out; red, yellow, bright blue etc. that always looks good. here's a picture of mine in blue so u get an idea:

That looks real clean man I'm lovin it, what kinda paint did u use on that??? My only issue is that I don't really like alot of the colors mixed with my paintjob ya know?? Blue may look alright but I wanted to go with somethin a lil different

I have the same color G as you and I went with that same blue or something close to it that Reelax did. I also painted a bit more than just the cal and drums too. There was just rust everywhere! Pics are pretty old though. These were before I re-tinted, repainted, and dropped it....

I am happy with it. The only other 2 colors I might think of going with are black or silver or a darker blue. I just used Ford Blue "High Temp" Engine Paint from Autozone.

I painted mine aluminum a few years ago, they match the color of my car pretty well. I think I am going to repaint them when I put my 18s back on in the next few weeks
