Caliper Colour

[wigz45]

Had my yellow cupra 2 weeks now and really wanting to paint the calipers but im not sure what colour? theres the obvious choice of red but that just looks boring after a while. cant seem to find any photos of yellow cars with painted calipers tho :/

a friend did suggest Skoda green but im not too sure if that would work?
does anyone have photos of old cars maybe or if anyone has painted them on the mk5?
thanks!

I have seen a yellow Leon Cupra R with Gold Brembo calipers red lettering. That looked good.

I have painted mine in red, bought 2-component paint from foliatec. Takes a while to do it tough.. But the result was great! Sorry for not having any pics. I choosed red because the optional brakes are red Maybe i can fool someone? My car is a cupra in furia grey..

I always think stock calipers painted red looks a bit "wish it was" so I did mine "clean and tidy" Black.

Black/White and White/Black on mine just to be different

Used Hammerite as always.

I was thinking painting my candy white cupra callipers all white. What do you guys think?

Well techies came out very well in white.

i did think black but then wouldnt they just show up the dust etc? down the line i was thinking about upgrading to the racing brakes so i guess it would make sense to paint them all red. just wish i had some photos!

audi RS blue looked good on my yellow Arosa brakes. good contrast of colours.

ah thanks ill have a look into it. any chance you could take a photo of your rear wheels racebrake? im guessing they are painted red if you have the racing brake option? thanks for your help!

I think yellow or gold ,would look great . why don't you do a photoshop, see what it looks like. gives you a very good idea !!!!!!!!!!!

I too had a Fabia VRS with green calipers and was thinking about painting mine on my Candy White FR TDI, but I am still unsure what colour - black OK, but anybody gone for Red?
