Stonkin Posted May 23, 2006 Share Posted May 23, 2006 I'm in the same boat mate. Black car, black chrome wheels soon to be fitted, but they have a blue band aroudn the rim, colour scheme under the bonnet is red white and chrome. So for me its either red, but will this clash with the blue band, or perhapa white with red supra logos. Sorry, i'm not helping much am i Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

osso Posted May 23, 2006 Share Posted May 23, 2006 joking apart, i think a dark purple, with the supra label painted in white, would suit a red supra if you wanted to do something slightly different I defo wouldn't opt for yellow! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aeropete Posted May 23, 2006 Author Share Posted May 23, 2006 a supra label painted white?? liking it but who would paint that, i could get it done as sticker but that would just peel off wouldnt it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gaz1 Posted May 23, 2006 Share Posted May 23, 2006 mind you take no notice of me, i still cannot make up my mind on a colour for my car:( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
osso Posted May 23, 2006 Share Posted May 23, 2006 If you have UK spec callipers, then surely the Callipers will already have "Supra" engraved onto the side the calliper.. just fill the engraved bits with white paint. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

merckx Posted May 23, 2006 Share Posted May 23, 2006 want to paint my brake callipers this weekend but not sure what colour to paint them?? my car is red but im not realy sure i want to paint them red, : My car is red, I've got the calipers red aswell. It doesn't look quite right with bright red calipers calipers with the red car, especially as they're not the same shade. I'm going to change mine, maybe a light graphite or gunmetal colour.

_Rob_ Posted May 23, 2006 Share Posted May 23, 2006 get a vinyl stencil made of theSupra logo, then paint it in by hand, peel off the stencil and Oilla! supra logo! that was my method anyway! just wait till the paints dry before u peel it off and make sure the stencils stuck down good so u dont get any runs!
