sonic Posted May 22, 2011 Report Share Posted May 22, 2011 (edited) mmmmmmmmm tough one simon , dark colours wont show up behind the rims , i know its boring but on YOUR car silver would do the job nicely , could top em off with some black calpier decals Edited May 22, 2011 by sonic temple Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sonic Posted May 22, 2011 Report Share Posted May 22, 2011 red would look good , but clash with the colour scheme , and blue would look good , but would be a different blue to the rest of the car , silver would look like you have new callipers on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
antmax7 Posted May 22, 2011 Report Share Posted May 22, 2011 (edited) Gold or Bronze! FTW Edited May 22, 2011 by antmax7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arizona Posted May 22, 2011 Report Share Posted May 22, 2011 A lighter blue or turqouise for calipers with black drums? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Giz Posted May 22, 2011 Report Share Posted May 22, 2011 FRONT: Red/white/black/silver Calipers but with black or silver carriers, All one colour looks cheap, REAR: Calipers same colour as front, Carriers same colour as front. Rear drums again black or silver as any other colour looks cheap Remember TRD colours are red, black, silver/white so stick to these FTW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Angus Posted May 23, 2011 Report Share Posted May 23, 2011 Wheels should always be white, calipers should always be red. Zebra stripes ... there's an idea. The Mrs's MG has the registration ZBR and I was wondering how I could get something zebra onto it! She's been badgering me to paint her calipers, so I might just surprise her with that ...
