hey i got a white PPW 07 Z.. i cant decide what color i want to paint the calipers. im debating between red/copperish/black.. anyone got any other ideas.. which u guys think will look best

 

red

 

If you are not rocking a BBK, I would go with black or silver. Red, blue, green or any other color that stands out all look poserish to me.

 

Refer to the other thread on this page asking the same question.

 

There are manufactuers that do painted calipers that aren't BBK, but I tend to agree that red sticks out too much, but it's all personal pref. Dodge, Pontiac do red painted calipers without BBK. Yellow would to too over the top, save that for Porsche and Ferrari. I agree, black or silver is probably the best color. I did rock the red painted calipers on my spec-v, but that was bc it matched the red R on se-r...it chipped off and I painted them black the next time.

 

dont paint them please.... IMO it looks really cheap esp. on a 07 Z!!!!

 

Its kind of like when I see old beater "tuner" sometimes that have the rear drum brakes painted. It kills me. I would try to find some Brembo's maybe if you don't want to spend the big bucks for a BBK.

 

Also have a white 07. Struggled with the same decision but finally decided on silver Stoptechs. Only problem is silver needs to be special ordered and will take a month or two

 

Always bet on black.

 

does it look nice? (reserved)

 

ditto

 

Silver or light blue (endless)
