Caliper colour...

My car is yellow, what colour do you think would be best for the calipers? I'm thinking yellow or red. You can really see them through my wheels, so want them to look good, replacing a few brake pipes later, so might as well do it all at once, cheers....

How about black?

Personally I think the yellow will look too much and the red would clash with the body colour!

How about blue? Had blue on my orange supra and it looked pretty good. Failing that, I think yellow. Brett has orange calipers on his orange z and that looks pretty good.

Black or silver with silver edging on the disks. Other colours IMO are garish. Stock calipers especially are not attractive. No need to have your eyes drawn to them by painting them blue, red, yellow or whatever. Nice clean look is the best way IMO.

 

It's the same reason that if I was going for a big brake upgrade, I'd go for a set of AP calipers or something that are non intrusive neutral colour. SOOOO much more easier to the eye. The same goes for the car overall. Keep colours to a minimum. Makes for a much more pleasing overall picture.

Mine are yellow but get dirty and grimy very quickly, but match the car pretty well.

Hmmmmm, maybe yellow then, haha, that was the original plan, decisions decisions....

i got silver ones, however my car is silver

I did have yellow calipers on mine but have now gone black and I have to admit they do look alot better when they are less obvious. I still have to change the backs but its on my list of things to do :)
