Caliper Color Decision

[lukb]

I understand this has been talked about before.. but it is very specific to the color of car.

So I want to paint my brake calipers, and i'm choosing a color.

My GST is the OEM maroon...
Oh yeah.. and its a convertible with the tan top.

Vote: color

 

[dsmrebel084]

Oem maroon

 

[Gs Dewd]

Can't go wrong with black.

 

[2GbTalonGuy]

Yeah, I vote maroon as well, or red.

 

[Colt4G63 also]

Chrome.

 

[lukb]

Not doing black...

and not doing red... red would clash with the maroon i'm pretty sure.

Just painted some under-the-hood stuff red... would not work for external.

well.. this has gotten quiet..
I didn't think of maroon... and I just might do that..
still open to ideas though...
Silver?
Green?....

Pink?
Rainbow?

Be different and paint'em gold. Regular Rustoleum brush on paint. I did. They look hot. WTF

 

[AK Maniak]

I can't believe nobody asked this, but what color/kind of rims do you have?

Either way, I say you should paint em white

Don't you mean Barcelona red pearl

 

[daneatsv8s]

I second the vote for gold. I think it would compliment the maroon really well.

 

[DSM_munky_man]

I'm gunna be the third to say gold. Gold and maroon go good together.

 

[4Lurker4]

Go bronze, it'll work with the car color yet be different in it's own right

 

[907gs-t]

I vote Bronze also.

see if you can find a color to match your tan top. that would be sick!!

otherwise add another mark under gold

 

[keithlag]

i vote for gold

 

[brian102]

White

 

[99OZDSM]

if your car is barcelona red pearl then go with bronze calipers

 

[PieEyedPiper]

STOP saying "maroon"!!! It's Barcelona Red Pearl. Show some pride, else it's just purple

I vote for silver calipers.

 

[Bud92gsx]

Gold or Bronze..

 

[Curtisd03]

Black always looks good.

 

[KazooGS-T]

I have a "maroon" trailblazer. (Red jewel metallic). I have red calipers with black brackets and it looks awesome.

 

[90gsxjuice]

Brembo gold

 

[Dhan]

Mine are silver on ugly maroon.

Edit: NM I see you have a 2g

I always say...if they're stock, just paint them black or gray. No reason to show off your stock little baby calipers. I painted mine black and added an 'Eclipse' decal to them. Looks stock and clean, not too show-offy. I think there's a pic in my profile.

I don't have the red on my rims anymore, so it's even a bit cleaner.

That eclipse decal looks sick, I might do that.
But I vote gold. If you look at the color wheel just think of the distance from your car's body color to the color of the calipers as the intensity amount. If you go green its about as extreme as it gets and everyone will notice the calipers. just my input tho.
