caliper colors

Jimbo370 · 02-16-2016, 08:41 PM

I am thinking about going with Gold color on a black mag 370z with oem rims for now. ANY THOUGHTS

sound dope. I saw a GTR the other day with copper painted calipers, which looks similar to gold. I feel like red always also looks good, but maybe overdone?

I think the nice thing about black is that almost any color goes with it. I've seen yellow calipers that looked great on mag black.

Just my 2 cents

Sounds good to me. Gold and Black always goes good together. Reminds me of the JPS Lotus cars.

I'll take the one sitting on the rear tire

Definitely very good looking ^^

Gold definitely looks good on black.

I just picked up some akebonos from a forum member. I'm thinking of going either Candy Teal or Illusion Violet. Mag Black Z also, with gloss black F14's.

Lambo Orange in the sunlight, goldish in the shade.

also you can get Nissan decals in almost every color on Ebay rather cheaply

That's the wheels I have been looking at. Love the looks!

What size are they? I've been looking at the 19x9.5 fronts and 19x11 rears.

ZeroZeta · 02-25-2016, 03:51 PM

Or you could go big like staggered357 and copper plate yours

Copper plated akebono!!

You hit the nail on the head, that is exactly the sizes I am running. If you call GetYouWheels they will hook you up.

If you track your car, the calipers will turn a blah version of whatever you choose. Like the heat sucks all the saturation out of the color.

My stoptechs turned pink after a while
The 370z Sport brakes are a nice gray.
