GP2001 Posted February 21, 2009 Share Posted February 21, 2009 Going to paint my calipers today on my 05 RBP LGT. Trying to decide what color calipers to go with, I was thinking either just a glossy black or a dark bronze. What do you guys think would be good, pics would be great! Edit: The more I think about it I am ruling out a bronze color, so I am thinking semi-gloss black or a very dark gray/titanium color... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest JessterCPA Posted February 21, 2009 Share Posted February 21, 2009 Not a big fan of painted calipers, so I'd say leave them stock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

abakja1 Posted February 21, 2009 Share Posted February 21, 2009 Sand the calipers smooth and paint black for discrete look,.. However, painting Brembo gold would have a nice look too if you want to stand out...better yet get 04 STI calipers in front,.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GP2001 Posted February 22, 2009 Author Share Posted February 22, 2009 pink whats up brad its chris I'm down for helping you do this on your car to see how it is,lol I ended up going with a very dark gray/titanium metallic, I think it looks really good and almost stock. I'll throw some pics up once I get it cleaned up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

frostbite3360 Posted February 22, 2009 Share Posted February 22, 2009 I painted my calipers black. My wheels are black too so they match. But I hate the way they look stock. Plus after a while they just get rusted looking and theres nothing pretty about them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
naimouasta Posted February 22, 2009 Share Posted February 22, 2009 either black, or silver so they look new again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pawlwawl06 Posted March 5, 2009 Share Posted March 5, 2009 I'm doing mine silver. I have cleared headlights and chrome trim inserts on the rocker panels, so I think the silver calipers will blend in perfectly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
