What color for my calipers?

[jaybs02]

I'm looking to paint my calipers but I am not to sure what color to paint them.

Mines an 02 in Bronze Mist, and I would hate to paint them in some thing that would look stupid later on.

This is the color if someone doesn't know.

You can do em black, i did mine black, they do get dirty really fast and look kind of bad up close when they are dirty, but i like it.

I also think silver might look good with it too, but i like black better. Make sure you clean them good, cover everything around the caliper, spray light coats of paint on (or brush, whatever kind of paint it is). it took me 2 days to do all 4, i had to let each dry for a little while. They also recommend not driving your car for about 10 hours so it can dry.

Black will be easiest to take care considering brake dust.

I did mine in silver. I loved it. People notice your brakes a lot more when they are painted.

Out of those colors, black or silver would work. Any of the others wouldn't look right.

My red ones hardly get dirty at all (as well as my wheels too..)

when u have ceramics brake dust isnt much of a problem anymore ;)

Red or Yellow

[TheMeaningOfLife]

I vote red or black, or if you wanna get fancy red and black.

Black.

I was thinking about the black, and that seems to be the general answer.

Now another 2 questions...would the high heat engine paint work just as well or should I stick to the kit, and how many calipers can be done with the kit 2 or 4?

Thanks for all the answers and comments so far

If you are going to paint your calipers use VHT high temp caliper paint, it works well.

That pic of the car doesn't look bronze at all... But G2 has a gold colored caliper paint. Might check out their colors. Can check out

Just let the caliper picture change. (Can use save picture to see what color it's displaying incase theirs a question)
If you're gunna be running on stockers I'd go black or silver though. Don't really want to draw attention to them with a bright or contrasting color.
