Favorite Caliper Color - Photoshopped

Jeffblue · 08-24-2010, 02:03 PM

i know the red will look good. it always looks good. but i like the idea of orange because its not red and really stands out. looks good on the GTR no matter what color it is, but for some reason its not jiving with the black Z, maybe i did the wrong shade?

silver cars, you can get away with any color!

Sorry I wanted to see what the colored calipers would look like behind black chrome wheels instead of your silver.

So true. If I hadn't bought my 40th, I think I'd go with...

Brilliant Silver + Xbox Green calipers and interior accents.

completely dissagree!

not if you want to keep the car looking elite you dont want to use super bright colors.

I voted red, however Blue looks really sharp if you wana switch it up a bit

Jeffblue · 08-24-2010, 05:14 PM

i love all the colors, really, but i feel like the red is the only color that actually pics up any color from the car (the brake lights) I guess orange kind of pics up the signals.

Hey Jeff, like we discussed.... red is nice, but.......IMO, if I had a black car I would do either kandy purple calipers, or maybe a kandy antifreeze green (like what I am putting on my G).

Red is classic. Maybe go different on the logo if you plan to keep one. Silver may look good on a red caliper / black car. Yellow is traditionally euro cars (from what I've seen it on) like Porsche & BMW, but doesn't mean it wont look nice. In the end get what you like, you have to live with it right.
