Opinion on what color you prefer for your calipers?

xxZxx · 04-23-2016, 10:27 PM

My calipers are orange as of right now. Previous owner got them done to match the orange interior but....I'm not a fon of it. I'm going to go maybe red. Opinions? I'm going to go the full route by removing the calipers, sand and polish it down and getting them painted. No cheap shortcuts..primer then paint. I'll post pics during the process

Powder coat them.

Mines are yellow with emeralds and lime clear coat.

I have thought about it, only problem is if they chip you can't touch them up. They have paint now that I'll look just as good. I just can't decide if I should go back to black or just choose another color combo. Mike that used to be on this forum don't do the powdercoated calipers anymore..well last I heard.

I'm still on the forum, I'm just mostly retired from the powdercoating. If you aren't picky on time and can do them when I am available, I'm still doing them. I'm just not letting the business dictate my life anymore.
