So today, i decided to do my calipers like the porsche cayenes or w/e its called.
porsches that have yellow calipers(instead of standard red) mean that they have the carbon ceramic brakes and if i remember right, a $10k option, just fyi lol if anything, i would say that painting them "yellow like a porsche" is rice especially since porsche's yellow calipers mean business

To me painting stock calipers is rice. Seems like the whole point is to give people something to look at, which is great if you've got something out of the ordinary to look at. Stock calipers with a paintjob isn't setting it apart from anything.

But hey, if you're happy, that's all that matters.
