PCCB Brake Caliper Color
Ordered GT4 in Guards Red with PCCBs and black satin wheels. Planned to have calipers painted guards red to match car color. Wondering if I should leave them yellow or consider another color like black or polished silver.
I left them yellow on my GT Silver Boxster GTS because I think the yellow looks good with the silver. But on guards red I'm afraid the yellow might clash. Yes, I realize this is silly superficial stuff but I love design and color and how it all works together!
What color would you go with for the calipers?

My rosso scuderia (Looks like Guards red) challenge stradale has silver color pccb's and it looks fantastic on a red car. I would definitely paint it though. I have seen people (on RL) calling the red GT4 with yellow pccb's the McDonald car. I would vote silver first then red second. cheers

Silver to dark silver would look KILLER!

It would be nice if Porsche eventually lets customers pick their caliper color:
There have been some GT4 owners who've painted their calipers aftermarket. This one is my favorite:
At any rate, I'd love to see the PCCB caliper Photoshopped into silver and other colors.

Leave them yellow. It's the only way for cougars to make a decision between two porsche owners at the bar.

I'd leave them alone - they look good, changing them costs money, and changing them might cause you issues (like flaking) down the road. A lot of my Tesla brethren want to paint their calipers red (if they have base grey) and there has been mixed results - that on a car that barely uses the brakes. I'd leave things the way God (or Porsche in this case) made them.

people are modding the heck out of their GT4s - why stop at painting calipers if you want to?
so paint them if you want to; what matters is that you like it
