What color should I paint my calipers guys ...

I need help..

Calipers and engine covers... I was thinking a dark red... Cherry Wine Red

Something that has to match with the carbon fiber cover..

 

very nice

red would be fine, but me personally just keep it the way it is

 

id go redfor sure.. is that just vinyl on the engine cover??

 

Love the Carbon Fiber (obviously)....


I agree with you on the color choice.

 

See I thought about that too... Leaving it black and plastics Oem

Negative in the vinyl

Yea I want a bit of contrast.. But not popping like neon red... Something calm... And smooth cherry wine red is like a very dark red... And of course I will clear my headlights.. And do something too to get the accent theme going..

 

Keep them black and focus on getting the A-Spec kit

 

But I don't want type s aspecs.. I had it on my old MRP it looks nice and all but... I wanna be different and change it up a bit... Something very different

 

well what is it?? lol. is it that hydro dip stuff?

 

It's real Kevlar... Just need to be resand and spray clear ... lol..

 

Keep it man, looks great!

 

yea id keep that,do it to all of the covers lol

 

lets say paint it Morrocal Red Pearl.

 

^^^^ There you go!


But, Tyler has a good point. These can be 1 and 1a.

 

I kept mine black, repainted them since OEM paint was peeling off.

I aaaaalmost went with a sunset orange type color.

 

that would have looked pretty dope man

 

old picture, but yeah...red is the answer

 

^^^ +1

 

I had brembo gold previously but now I painted it Metallic Teal...Here is what I recently posted on my progress thread...

 

red does look great with CBP!

 

yes!! im looking more of a darker red...

i have u added on Instagram .. i've seen it awesome...

yess yess!!

x2!!!

 

photoshop?

 

This.....

 

I got a bone stock 05' TL and bought some caliper covers from Acura. Thinking about painting them gold? Anyone know if Dupli-Color is the answer?

 

Besides, I think red calipers will add 5 HP per corner.

 

lmao im definitely gonna try red first...

i just bought some work wheels for my TL-S... i have two sets of work wheels now

 

Red with Works......works!

 

red looks good.

 

 

Can't wait... Waiting until my wheels are fixed.. Just picked up a set of work wheels.. My second set... Then I will start on the caliper for the TL-S and the work wheels will go on it

Until then I slapped them on my sc300




Not bad polished MSP finish with red calipers.. I'm stoked

 

man are you working at an impound lot or something? there always alot of car back there lol.

 

Anxious for new pics!

 

lol Stealership

i know i cant wait either... i will update everyone as soon as i can i promise i wont hold back

 

OK, start of a new week-any news?

Nice. Very nice.

 

wheels getting fixed right now...i wont get it until wednesday

having a slight trouble with the bumper...im trying to not use too much bondo ...

one overtime too much bondo...stress and crack... if daily driven...two thinking of building a frame then building bumper around it...

i have a friend in dallas who wants to do my bumper...so im half half right now...

i just bought some wide fenders for my sc300 ...

then the calipers will be painted when i get the wheels back... im thinking MRP paint color code the calipers
