oh man! since you have grey you can get away with anything. considering that, i'd say don't do red, or grey. i say this because i have black, and ii'm kind of stuck with doing read.

Gold/orange looks real nice, classy, but not played out really.

AK370Z 10-05-2010 03:53 PM

Red.

Kthxbai! :tup:

m4a1mustang 10-05-2010 03:54 PM

I like Red and Yellow.

I would have voted for flourescent pink..... stock rules!!

I know that's a photo-shopped pic, but are those covers that you're thinking of (like the ones on e-Bay)?

How close could you get?

SophiaZ 10-05-2010 07:05 PM

You get Red for my vote. I like the Purple too tho, but I like to be different.

I'll have to look through my samples when I get home, but their gold has a lot of orange to it. I've got copper which is darker, and several golds, but they are lighter.

Liquid_G 10-05-2010 08:19 PM

I can't believe I'm saying this.. but I voted for "stock"

StLRedrider 10-05-2010 08:25 PM

Dembflyr 10-05-2010 11:15 PM

I voted red but that blue looks good with the grey.
Just had mine done in red (ups says delivery scheduled for tomorrow) :happydance:
Thanks again Mike. :tup:
My car is blue so that limited my options.

That's racist! :bowrofl: :icon17: J/K

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

Scott @ RA 10-06-2010 02:30 AM

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

2theextreme 10-06-2010 05:04 AM

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

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

ClemsonWill 10-06-2010 09:53 AM

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!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

roplusbee 10-06-2010 01:25 PM

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).

I know the poll doesn't officially close for another few days, but I am ending it now as I don't see the winner swaying in a different direction. Here are the final tallies between here and my Facebook page. Red it is!

Red - 43
GTR Brembo Gold - 24
Blue - 16
Purple - 10
Neon Green - 10
Stock - 9
Teal - 6
Neon Yellow - 5
