coloured calipers arent too bad as long as the colour chosen suits the scheme and rest of the car

coloured drums look shite and should only be painted black

Im not a huge fan of the colour gold, too used to seeing it on all the pykies round my way (argos gold)

Im lookin for pics of different coloured calipers on B's/

I got the v6 conversion from LMF Vaux last week, just wondered whether people think it looks tacky tro paint your break calipers?

I have a can of hammerite (Red, silver car) wondered if its a good idea or not.
Plus does it all flake off after time? I.e Am i going to have to take em all off again to respray em every 6 months? Or will it hold good?

opinions/ideas welcome :thumbs:
