Hey all, with all my cars im a big fan of spraying the calipers instead of leaving them the stock grey colour, but ive hit a snag, what colour calipers suite the burgundy colour skyline? nothing i can think of suits the rest of the car colour, id love to do bright red but im not sure that will sit well with the rest of the car being burgundy.

what do you guys think?

I reckon go the same colour as your car, would look nice. Because a lot of the times, a home job bright red calipers makes the car look cheap lol. See it on heaps of shit boxes on the road ;)

lol home jobs look cheap? no waiz!

this is the rear caliper on my old skyline that i painted at home

imo it looks fken good, but i cant do this red, the only reason this one was red is because the car was white

Go Black FTW. they still look good but not wanky. Black and then sand back the nissan lettering if you want to. plus black and burgundy go together good. only other colour i can thing that wouldnt look bad is a brembo style bronze gold colour

Lol, I'll take my words back :rolleyes: I do admit the quality of it looks awesome.

But I said what I said because I've seen a lot of home jobs xD

Did you take them off your car to spray them?

haha, thanks guys, sometimes i wish i had a white car so i can do the same color

heh, thats ok mate. no i didnt take them off the car, just covered the surrounding areas!

It looks good as considering you didn't take em off your car :laugh:

hehe, behind the caliper was origional color, cos couldnt get the can behind there, nor see so meh.

does anyone know the actual name of the brenbo gold color? its not a straight gold...

id prefer an in your face colour, i wanna do the brembo gold, with either red or black nissan on it, but i cant seem to get the actual colour name of the gold that brembo use...
