so i took my SUPERwhite tc and painted the calipers black. i went with black because red doesnt match what i have/want on the car. everyone does red.
but someone told me that it would look good if i painted them white.
now besides it getting dirty really fast and i think this would look pretty good. concidering im going to be getting new wheels that are dark with a silver or light finished lip. what does everyone think about this? would White calipers be a cool accent to the look

 

I was planning on white..
but now i just cant afford not to drive for 24 hrs...

Id either go with
1. White
2. Black
3. Black/Red Mixture... (dark blood red)
4. Black w/ sparkles
... if possible chromeish finish...

but what do i know

i didnt even paint mine yet

 

I think white would look good, I even thought about it on my FM for an accent. I figured it would be to hard to keep clean, so I ended up buying black. It's still in the box. Could you post some pictures of your black to inspire me to get around to doing it?
thx.

 

yea ill post the black pix.. not all that great.. barely notice...think im gonna do white and see how it goes

 

what about gold? i think gold and white looks awesome

 

I painted mine to match the yellow body color....looks good.

 

red matches because of the red tails
i would just go with black since red can be an attention grabber. i dont wnat to grab too much attention with red calipers

 

im going to wait and when i order my brembos im getting the calipers with them red..i also think brembo makes the calipers red with lettering something like tc or scion....

 

To paint them...do you just leave them on.....or take them off. Im not real "handy" when it comes to working on cars, is it possible to paint them ON the rotor?

 

i havent seen actually brembos with the lettering but i have seen someone on here who painted their calipers that way

 

I say orange, white and orange look good together, put some orange overlays on your side blinkers and deck out the bay with orange accents to that will look dope.

 

It does not take 24 hours for it to dry. It takes 2 hours max before you can put the wheels on. Then as soon as you drive the calipers will heat up and bake the paint on.

 

not a fan of painted calipers. but if you are going to paint them paint them silver.

 

mine are silver. and you dont have to wait 2 hours, it doesnt take 2 hours for the paint to dry. once its dry... its dry. breaking will take care of the paint on the caliper. it might smell a little though =-0

 

I'd go with gold

 

I was thinking orange for mine.. but havn't decided if i actually want to paint them at all.

 

I'll be painting mine bright yellow, when my spacers finally arrive (err hello H&R any chance of supplying the US market quicker).

But Yellow and Black is my whole 'theme' so it was obvious. if I ever get yellow or gold rims, they'll probably have to go black.
