Anyone got pics of green car with painted calipers?

Trojan Horse · 03-21-02, 02:13 AM

I have a Sherwood Green Pearl coupe, and I'm trying to decide what color to paint the calipers. I'm thinking red, just because it will stand out the most, but I don't want my baby looking like a friggen Christmas tree!

Sherwood Green Pearl is an awesome color, the yellow calipers really compliment the paint. Nice pic Roger. It remindes me of The Lotus Espirit SE jim clark edition thats green and yellow. Silver is cool too. All beat the dust and rust I have.

ya i love the color it is mistaken for black alot but when the sun it out the green really stands out.

I know this is an old thread but didn't want to start another. What color you guys recommend for painting my calipers for my red coupe? Am leaning towards black...I also have the "Acura" brake caliper stencil set so black w/white logo?

Socol · 06-29-08, 05:57 PM

I say black or silver.

acura_legend_92 · 06-29-08, 08:34 PM

I would go with black and have the decal LEGEND placed on the calipers. I will post picture of the way my caliper looks and tell me if you like it
