PAINTING BRAKE CALIPERS

[joncav2222]

Hey guys...Im just looking for open opinions on what you guys think i shuld paint my calipers.

People tell me red for my color. I got the Gun Metal Grey paintjob, I tell them no.

Ive seen my car with red calipers an think its discustin...Im stikin with the whole blue interior and exterioir. I wuld like to paint em blue but Im just not feelin it. Plus if it helps with deciding i got chrome rims, and a blue 2 foot led tube in the front bumper.

THESE ARE MY OPTIONS-
1: BLACK
2: SILVER
3: BLUE
4: RED

Ive been tryin to decide for like 6 months now lol an I jus dont wana go through all the truble an then hate it...Basically im going to go with a majority vote..

thanks guys\

EDIT: sorry guys I shoulda gave ya some pics, here ya go:

why7 dont you do a gunmetal color, or if your scheme is blue your second best bet is to go with blue

Black since it's the closest color to your car.

All these brake calipers look very nice! do you guy's have a tutorial you used to paint them? Props :)

[joncav2222]

thanks guys. i posted my car domain up top. I have searched before for a grey color but considering my calipers are already that color just not painted I didnt really want to go with that. That galant sticker is hot i was searching for that but couldnt seem to find it.

I would 100% go with blue but want to paint my interior but am very sketchy with how long they last for. An interior paint i was told may crack or bubble from heat and cold leading to contracting and expanding the paint...any body even have any problems with an interior custom paint such as on dash, or the doors.

nice 9th gen, i would say go red with the calipers they'd look nice but since you have the blue theme go with blue. i have no idea how they would show with your rims though

i'd go black or silver. make things look clean. with your wheel choice and hte color of your car, if you went blue or red, it would look like you got a lil rainbow show going on.

[joncav2222]

haha, yeh thats exactly wut my worry was!

[joncav2222]

well i went with BLACK...came out preety nice...it makes it look nice and clean...nothing standing out, has a smoooth look to it...ill post sum pics up later im jus waitn for the paint to dry

Real chrome plating or the chrome spray that you can buy in stores that doesnt really look like chrome?
