Sent my calipers out for paint and was thinking about something different than standard black. Red is one option, however was thinking something more unique like blue. I like the below. Anyone know the colors and welcome opinions. My car is polar silver, standard brakes and will be running 18" technology wheels
Timely topic for me, too! My last BMW, an Alpine White 128i, had Phoenix Yellow performance brakes (think yellow-gold.) I loved that color scheme, and am really debating going with VHT's gold when I repaint. I think it would tie in with the Porsche crest colors nicely.
In regards to blue, I really like the Mexico Blue! I'm not a huge fan of the "royal" blue shades, but I think any shade would be nice on your Polar Silver car since it's a pretty frosty blue in the right lighting.

Agree on both points! I've always loved the gold calipers on the G35/350Z from a few years back.
And in terms of the blues, the Mexico Blue is a much nicer shade IMO than the darker (eg cobalt) blues.
