Show off your painted calipers
So Im starting this thread because I did not find one, and my factory calipers are starting to tarnish/corrode/rust especially on the back. On a brand new car (I've had mine for 6 months) this does not look good. Im looking for everyone who has their calipers painted to post a picture of their work, because I can not decide on a color. If possible try to capture a bit of the car's paint so I can see how it looks. Thanks and happy posting!

Red calipers add at least 20hp!
 Seriously though, red will go well with most of the colors. I have a WRB on order and will probably paint mine red. |
