caliper color?

stang300a · January 21st, 2008, 03:39 PM

i have a sonic blue stang with black fr500s. what color should i paint the calipers?

I voted red. Mainly because you want them to stand out. If you paint them blue, its going to blend in with the black/blue look of the car and be overlooked.

Red will make them noticable, and give it that performance look.

yea i was leaning towards red too. i just dont want it to look weird since i have no red on the car.

im leaning more towards the blue
cuz my calipers are red but nothing on car is red
everything is mainly blue like gauges, lights on the screen

I'd go black for the clean/subtle look.

Well man, its your car, so it comes down to what YOU want the color to be. You can get as many opinons as you want, but if 99,999,999 people say red and you like blue... you will not be happy till you get blue.

They will look good as long as they are painted.
