What colour calipers for silver car?

[Lightspeed]

As above... what colour calipers would go with a silver car on shadow chrome rims?

[Gs_command]

Hey there, anyone know where can one go to spray paint brake calipers? I was told it will require 3 days for the paint to really dry up. Any suggestions, comments?

[Lightspeed]

I believe that there are freelancers doing this...

 

I got mine sprayed at Autofix... other places like McWell and tyre shops have this service as well

 

 

Hmm... looks like red calipers are leading the poll... I wonder why

[Spoonsports]

DIY lor very easy mah

spray lightly will do.

[Lightspeed]

Any folks wanna explain why red is leading the poll?

For typical Jap cars, red are nicer. Blue also not bad...

 

I saw a silver AMG E-class Merc. It has big silver Merc brake calipers with black words [thumbsup] . I think it is an orginal Merc sport brake.

hi, just wanna ask, can u use non-spray type of paints? is there a any requirement for the paint?

[Car_nuts]

"SPOON" Metallic Blue with white words. Chio. Cos my friend just did it. His ride is white with white rims.

The paint must be able to withstand high temperatures ...

 

You can try Hammerite from DIY shops

How about non jap cars?

[Marcz]

hmm...i got this kangaroo brand, local brand paint, don't know if can withstand high temps... how high we talking about ? 500 degrees?

[Marcz]

my ride is titanium grey, so thinking of yellow or white

[Tploh]

Prefer orange, but not an option. So, choose red lor.

[Lightspeed]

White Calipers? Haven't seen them before

[Marcz]

yeaaaa white...hahaha..but i'm worried they will get dirty easily

[Lightspeed]

Don't have to worry... it's a sure thing.... sure to get dirty easily

To me... silver or gold are nice but it don't outshine people's attention as much as red...

My friend sprayed his white and it is very un-noticeable lor.
