painted calipers


What do you guys think of painting the stock calipers? Im debating whether or not i should paint mine red or not. Here is a pic of my car to give you an idea what it would look like.

At work, so I can't see the pic, but I painted mine and love it! Gotten a lot of compliments especially with my wheels. I'd say definitely do it, it's a cheap mod that goes a long way in the style department.

Red??! No way man, paint them black. I have the same rims and painted mine black. Makes 'em disappear. Unless, of course, you want everyone to see your red calipers through your black rims.

i'd say paint them BLACK. add a mustang/pony/gt chrome or silver decal. the red will take away from your black rims.
