Yellow. Look at the calipers on the 458, that bright yellow. It'll pop

I'm a huge fan of clear calipers.

TerribleONE · 11-25-2013, 08:05 PM

I guess I should of added other on the poll!

Bright red or black. I think anything else will look too busy

PS you forgot to wipe off the finger prints on the black piece/window

I actually think blue would look great. To match the rays blue, don't think it would look too busy.

Wonka2581 · 11-25-2013, 08:48 PM

What about yellow.
