I reckon the red would look good.

Here is a pic of Brett's white exy with them painted in red.

I think a purple colour would suit as well!

I reckon white would really stand out, but would be a pain to keep clean! emoticon

Re: colouring brake calipers


hey,

purple might be cool, but same with red, and also white! so many colours. hows about multi coloured? haha

how long would it take for a white brake caliper to get dirty?

red is a safe option, looks great but alot of cars have them.

i think purple would be suttle, and look neat!

has anyone ever seen a white or purple(ly) brake caliper before? and if so what did you think?

cheers

Re: colouring brake calipers


i rekon gold or red (like brembos). i did this awhile ago prep work is a pain and depending how good a job you want it can take most of a day to do a pair. i havent seen white drum and caliper pint on the shelves but i rekon it would be grey in 2 days of driving unless you got ebc green stuff pads in which case maybe 2 weeks,
