i will be getting some new Volk Gt-c's here shortly and i have the Daytona Blue Z. Wanted to know what color calipers i should go with? Red, Yellow, Blue or Black? Stock brakes with 19" Gt-C's! Thanks

 

Not blue, cause it would clash too much with the color of your car. Red is nice but common. Black is nice but not as noticable. Yellow would really stand out.

 

blue matches the car
red is popular (but I like)
black is un-noticeable
yellow is weird (IMO)

go with whichever one you like the best, not because its too popular or some dumbass says it looks weird. =P

 

I went with the red. It is common but thats because it looks so good. And on any car regardless of color.

I agree, Yellow would not look right except maybe on a yellow Z. The red you see on my pads is no squeak (Hawk HPS pads) not paint.

 

baby blue

 

Gold

I too have a daytona blue, but I'm going to buy silver wheels to match the trim and gold brakes. The STIs have gold wheels & gold brakes. It looks quite nice, but they don't have silver door handles.

 

Blue for sure--if anything it will compliment the car. Red takes away from blue.

 

gold or chrome like Greddy

 

how about... dont paint them.. why take away from the wheels by painting your stock brake calipers? i painted mine red and hated it... painted them black after that

 

i just put privat fahrens on my car which have thin 5 spokes. now that the caliper is exposed, i have to paint it, because it looks off. i dont want anything flashy, i just want to make the caliper look clean. i am thinking either silver or black. opinions?

 

I just powdercoated some brembo's gloss black and they look really nice. Also, how about a gunmetal? I also have a perfect match for daytona blue, but non-metallic.

 

I love the Red on my DB

 

That may be my project today as a matter of fact!

 

Personally, I would go with Red or Silver on the DB. I have the blue on CS, but I don't think the blue calipers would match properly with the DB. That's just my $.02...

 

here is my custom mix daytona blue powdercoat on a daytona blue. matches pretty good.

 

Looks Good!! I stand corrected.

 

blue calipers is definitely the way to go. I am getting mine powdercoated soon.

 

Buy a big break kit. Other wise it's just a race inspired cosmetic enhancement.

 

always red

 

If you could get the blue to match the car I think that would look good
