RE: What Color to paint calipers

Where is the best place to buy caliper paint? Is there a specific type of high temperature paint to use?

hey, while we're at it...

I'm going to paint mine on my windveil blue soon. I kinda want red as black will just be boring. Will red look ricey? I think it might look good, will match the parking lights.

Only colors I have seen are all bright colors: red, blue, yellow... and well black.

The blue is like a medium bright blue, maybe that would look best?

I'm also thinking blue.

Cool, I think thats the same kit Eastwood sells for $40.00
Thanks

BTW here is another place
http://www.duplicolor.com/products/caliper.html
It's about $17 and you can get it at Walmart, Kmart, Autozone. Pepboys ect. See the web site. I don't know if it's as good as the other kit. I used the other kit on my Monte Carlo and It lasts and it holds up well

RE: What Color to paint calipers

I would go with a matching color to the stripe color if i were u.

I'm thinking the same thing, about painting the calipers that is, but my car is just black.......and all black...... black windows, taillights, window scoops, its a dark car......only the wheels are not black, they are the grey bullits that came on it, but with black pony caps.

so what for me guys???
