Do you think I should paint the calipers on my RS2, or leave them alone? If so, what color should I paint them?

 

bbk!

 

Paint them. Color depends on what kind of color scheme you plan to do. I wanted to stand out, so I painted mine red.

 

paint them black :D or Blue :D

 

does anyone have any pics?

 

i painted mine red on my Rs2.

Looks great with the blue paint and black wheels.

I thought i had a pic but guess not.

 

Its YOUR car. Do what YOU think looks good.

 

go with blue. duplicolor sells a caliper kit thats brush on.

 

whats cheaper than that and works the exact same is engine enamal. i looked at it and was like hey.. same temp... and half the price! but i had brake cleaner. i painted mine red and i thought it looked great... you can see it when youre driving!



i went for the big brembo look a like.... not too bad and doesnt attract that much attention

if you want more pics, ask... i have some of them close up.... i know your blue is a tad different but it gives you an idea.

 

I went red....looks sweet....go with red....sorry no pic

 

bbk ftw! i <3 shortcuts

 

I have black on my RS2, just finished yesterday. I'll get pics up later. I thought the blue would be too much the same and not close enough the blue color on the car. And I think red calipers w/ a blue car doesn't work. Even the Brembos on the STis aren't red, they're gold. Gold/Yellow or black is my vote.

 

hey sciontologist, were you on your way to tracy? hehe

 

hahahaha on the way back

me and a box (evilsciongrrl) were coing back from the Elk grove meet and we decided to snap shots of each others car... i tihnk this one came out the best...

 

Here's the red...



For your tC I would go black or red. Black would look good with some pimped rotors and tinted windows. Look into anthracite colored rims and black emblems and you'd be set! Just my 2-bits.

 

lol good stuff man good stuff.
