what's your goal? what look are you going for?
once you can answer those questions, picking the color will be a no brainer...you don't need any input from this forum :) |

Only problem with black is they disappear under the wheels making a Big Brake Kit look like Small Brake Kit.
If that was my car, I would go either Silver or Gold. Chris |
I think red always looks good on a BBK. I would say red or black.
|
Black w/ silver lettering.
|
absolutely black - with their white writing they will look like they belong there

thaks for all ur help guys...
yeah i was thinking either red or black.. people will easily know that there is BBK in my car if i go with red...:) but black might also looks great coz considering i got gold wheels that would surely go well with black caliper What do u guys think with the new costum color from Brembo??the Kandy red...or is it better than the original brembo red color?? thanks guys...

silver, matches the wheel lip and draws the eye to it.
|
I would say silver or black

Chris True that pic doesn't flaunt the BBK, but they are far from hidden. IMO, it is all about being subtle. Make the car look like it is properly setup. If he puts a red caliper on his setup, sure you will see it, but IMO, it won't look right. |
Nice rims! How did you get them in gold? It's say go for some contrast. Silver should be good in your case. Did you lower your car btw?

Gunmetal? But i say black..

I like subtle too but black is a minimizing color so his 6 pot will look more like a 4 pot once its all on there. Chris |
that is disappeared? wow! that brake kit looks huge under the SSR's to me - and rightfully so, its a large caliper and rotor, and much larger than the 4 pot counterparts
black, IMHO, is the perfect color the silver will clash horribly with the gold - you can get away with it with the lip because the lip is polished, and deep, and adds "girth" to the wheel. The black will give it a much cleaner look overall (again, my opinion) |
black w/ gold decals
