ok, sorry... know it's been brought up plenty of times before but what color should i paint my brake calipers? i thought black looked really good but you can only notice it if you actually look real close, i was thinking red? what do yall think for my SSM (by the way my intake is red so i was thinking colormatchin it)

 

also, should i paint the rear calipers too, there pretty damn small!!

 

i got red!!!!!!!!!!

 

mmmmm oem color or black...red is ok but not my cup of tea

 

I vote for black

 

match the car!

 

black makes it look classy, red makes it look sporty .... u have a type s, go red

 

how about silver? Something close to SSM? I know they are already "silverish", but it may look better painted silver.

 

Black, it looks stealth, hides the ugly calipers. IMO upgraded brakes should be a different color other than black, because showing off stock calipers isn't that impressive.

I also vote for black.

 

silver or black...or black and silver/half & half...like the bracket black or silver and vice versa for the caliper. we did that on my boy's ssm but we used red & black

 

c0v3rr1d3 or something i cant remember his name...but on his rear calipers he painted then both black and red, and it looks pretty cool.

how about blue

 

black

 

SSM bracket and black caliper.

 

i vote for black, thats what i'm painting mine.....at one point.

 

which part is bracket?/caliper?

 

also... i think SSM would look pretty tight, i'm stuck between SSM and red but i really have no idea where i could get paint to match the SSM... or just get some silver high temp paint? would yall recommend painting the BACK calipers black or matching?

 

Mine are silver






*EDIT- I used the silver Duplicolor caliper paint kit

 

.... ur car is my dream car... and i really like the look of those calipers..

 

wow, appreciate it very much!

 

The caliper is the main part that compresses the brake pads. The bracket is the part that the caliper bolts onto. It's the metal frame that goes around the caliper.



Take a look at these for example. They are almost the same is the TL calipers. (Actually look like Legend calipers)

 

man, thanks for all the help guys, the reason i love this forum is because everyone is so helpful.... i'm gonna head down to autozone and see if i can get a caliper paint kit...
