I've got a deep green pearl 6MT with the black brembos but they're worn out. Any suggestions on colors other than black?

not trying to hijack...

Hey team, I've got stock caliper on my 06 AT, do you guys happen to know the size of the decals needed? And are the same size between front and back?

Cheers

Was considering painting my calipers too, base TL. Anyone out there have morrocan red with painted calipers? Normally would not want to do red on the base calipers but it may work with the car color.

G2 makes a good product in an array of colors:

Or check at your local auto parts store. I used to have a SSM TSX and I was going with the Silver/Blue theme. So perhaps dark blue calipers. Black and red are also good choices.

oh wow, I didn't know that people had extra sets of wheels for snow. O___o

i wouldn't know since it never snows here. but your brakes turned out swell. and in the end, as long as you love the way your car looks, that's all that matters!
