What color should i do my calipers on my black 2004 tsx???thanks for any advice and feed back!!

 

I think like a gold/bronze with some sparkle would look good.

 

I would personally go with black make it look nice and clean. Sleeper with a nice pop!

 

Gold

 

Black or Silver

 

+1

I did black - It just looks clean and subtle. Silver is the color the caliper would be if always kept super clean.

Sparkle paints look a bit cheap and distasteful, and nothing says "I'm to cheap to buy the BBK" like red or blue.

 

Black or red

 

candy purple!

 

Would also go for black or red

 

Go with a matte gold or black. Update the rotors too while you at it. Some nice slotted ones would complete the look.

 

Id personally go with black or red. gold wouldnt look too bad either, depends on the rims i guess

 

Used 1200 degree Rustoleum paint on calipers

 

I did eastwood ceramic red on mine and it lools great. Been over a year and no fading/chipping too!

 

Red

 

I prefer the OEM color, unpainted. It looks just fine.

BUT, black would probably be the acceptable color. As red, blue, and others look very faux.

 

You should upgrade your brake kit and leave them the color they come.
Don't fake the funk and paint your oem calipers.

Maybe buy some TL calipers and upgrade.

 

IMO, obviously from above ^^^, flat black is where it's at

 

Silver

 

gold or red =]

 

teal green

 

blue

 

diarrhea orange/brown

 

red or black... either way, make sure you clean the calipers really good with a drill w/wire brush attachment and apply 2-3 coats. The time spent prepping for paint + extra coats will make the paint job last longer!

 

I had a black Prelude... I went from red to silver to black. All look good to me.
The red has a sportier look. Silver is more subtly clean. Black is stealthy and doesn't stand out but looks 100x better than not painted at all.

 

black or silver

 

Black

 

i did black on mine - keeps the rust away and doesnt draw attention

 

Is it a BBK or sliders?

 

Did mine in Red and upgraded front rotors, after 8 years finally have my hands on it to upgrade the 2006 tsx i bought her. (wife got her own car 2014 MB CLA). Also did rear sway bar end links in red.

I did mine silver with a hammer effect.B4





After

 

Silver or black. Any color will look tacky as hell on stock brakes.
Especially red.

 

One vote for red. Yellow is neat too.

 

Did my TSX in black. Anything is better than rust color. I did my MDX in red; which, I like a lot. The only problem with any color other than black is keeping them clean of brake dust.
