Looking to paint my calipers on my abyss blue tl anyone have any thoughts what's a good color to go with the blue n my gun metal wheels....appreciate it

 

Black, or white. Red would look good too but only if you have brembos

Look into painting RDX caliper covers too

 

Black. Keep it clean and simple. Those calipers aren't ones that you would want to attract attention to, so that's why I think a gloss black would look very clean.

Base calipers should be black only
Just did mine over weekend. Took me 4 hours and I didn't even get my RDX covers on. Looks great even without them(for now)

 

if wimpy 5at brakes - black.

if brembo calipers- go for something crazy!

^something tells me he has an automatic tho

 

Well its 50/50 so...

 

Ya I was leaning on more of just simply doing black... Thanks everyone n yea I have automatic

 

I would say red or blue. The blue to go with your TL's colour.

 

If I were you I'd spend money on the RDX covers rather then paint.

 

He should have to paint calipers black anyways if he gets RDX covers lol

 

Not really. At least not the rears.

 

Been there, put on the front caliper covers before painting my caliper and it didn't look good at all.
Week later, removed the covers and painted my calipers. Looks 100 times better, and makes the brake look bigger and nicer.
Caliper cover looked out of place before.

Right now my rear calipers are still unpainted and you can't see the caliper if you're looking at a direct side view of the rim, but any other view you're looking at the rim, it looks ugly.

I gotta get mine painted asap.

 

base tl 5at calipers? dont really need to paint them....why draw attention to plain old calipers? unless they are super rusted then paint them stock silver

Don't go with red. Give Silver some consideration.
