Brake caliper colour?? Let's vote!?

[jonof]

OK,
So the new addition to the garage is a 3200 GTA in Nero Carbonio with darker almond interior.
I'm considering the following and I'm interested to know am I making her more distinguished and individual, or decreasing her appeal and therefore spoiling what is a really good example (or will be when few niggles are perfected!)
I'm thinking of 'privacy glassing' by a few shades...not excessively but just maybe 10%.
The car's got new 10 spoke 18" in graphite, (which maybe for sale soon), if I decide to go to 19", still in graphite. (BTW I have an unmarked of 10 spoke silvers advertised on here in the parts section).
The next BIG question is...colour of my calipers! No this is not a medical question!
Love to know everyone's thoughts...and 'no' pink's not really my thing!
Cheers all...

I would go for red or yellow calipers.

yellow with black would be nice, I had mine done in yellow a few months back but need to get my silver wheels changed to a dark colour to show them off.....

Noticed your Yellow calipers on Sunday morning Andrew, they really do transform the car, have to say, the paint on your car looked superb, no orange peel effect, nice to see your cherish your motor.

There's a blck Gransport for sale on PH with yellow calipers with the same colour wheels as yours..Have a look it looks lovely.

May I put forward a vote for red calipers? Against the black of the bodywork I think they look great!
But then again I don't get out much!

Don't much like the brown brake discs. They tend to look better in silver!

 

[Andyk]

Now that I would agree will Benny...Shiny car, dirty discs...Only done half a job.

Nice...the rust on the disc adds a certain different contrast as well! lol

This is interesting as i had a buyer who noticed that the paint tended towards an orange peel effect and he sugested the entire car had been resprayed.
I didnt think so but didnt argue with him to much.
Do these cars tend towards slightly poor paint jobs from the factory then?

cheers Adam I can't take the credit, it was detailed a few months back by shiltech when they did the calipers, should be able to sort the wheels next month, think I will go for black chrome

my car has a few imperfections on it as pointed out to me when it was detailed, shown me I few things that I was not aware of.
