Help me choose a caliper color

Im sure you already know what I would pick Mikey..... But might be best to also save the hassle (and money) and keep them the Nissan OEM metallic gray

I wanted to keep my trend of voting Blue for everything going but even I had to vote for Red!

I think you can do white calipers ONLY on white cars. Like this http://www.m3post.com/forums/attachm...1&d=1255962524

i think you could pull it off on black maybe. not that i would. although it would make a Blue Z look smurftastic....

I like the blue. It's different.

Just a guess, but I think they probably aren't very pretty after all the track use they have been through.

What can I say? I love them white calipers. Especially ones with big double pistons, a silky smooth shine, and says "Bimbo" on them. I'm the racist though? You're the one who is saying white on white only! F@#$ that! White calipers look best on a yellow car!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I voted for Red (because I am biased), but the GTR Brembo color is the hotness. Heck your car is silver, so you can effectively use whatever you want and it works (provided you don't go overboard accessorizing).

you definitely can't go wrong with red! So now, metallic red? solid red?

Crystal Red Metallic would look hot!

Especially hot if Mike paints his nails in the same color on race weekend.

Jeffblue · 10-08-2010, 09:22 AM

BTW if it makes your decision any easier, Red one my poll by a landslide as well.

I think I will do just plain red. The crystal red metallic looks cool up close, but a little too maroon for my taste.
