Heyrick Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 Just read through pages of posts like this so sorry to add another! Didn't see many threads on those with red cars. I now have UK brakes to go on and was wondering what colours would work for the calipers? The wheels will be lexus wheels with a silver face and the rest black. I know black would work ok but was wondering if anything else would work - pics on red cars would be helpful. Any helpful suggestions appreciated!

Josh Posted August 24, 2011 Share Posted August 24, 2011 I'm going to refurb my brakes soon and I'm going to paint them black and put the "Supra" stickers on them. I think black would be best with yours too. Red may look ok though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heyrick Posted August 24, 2011 Author Share Posted August 24, 2011 I don't think red would work well. Black is still an option but a tad boring - that may suit me though? Navy Buff made me think of someone who likes warships (as in "Train Buff")... nevermind. Yes, Navy could work - any more suggestions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No other colour would really work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heyrick Posted August 25, 2011 Author Share Posted August 25, 2011 Gold's a possibility but I'm guessing you'd need to spray to get a good result? I hear you Josh! Just trying to think 'outside the box' a bit! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heyrick Posted August 26, 2011 Author Share Posted August 26, 2011 Thanks Scott, very helpful! Ok, I get it - red car = limited options re: caliper colour. I've done the black before and so I'm going to try red. I can always redo it. Thanks for your input! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Posted August 26, 2011 Share Posted August 26, 2011 I was talking about gunmetal, like I suggested earlier Silver also looks good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
