I have a silverstone silver year 2000 honda s2000 with red leather and black dash, im trying to decide what colour to paint the calipers? red or silver are my preffered suggestions... silver would be more subtle but then red (porsche) may compliment the red leather & rear lights but could also look a wee bit naff. any comments are welcome
cheers

 

Painted callipers are too Max Power for me.

 

I have the same colour combo and went for black as I did not want to draw any attention to the rubbish calipers

 

I bought a spare set of calipers with the intention of painting them red but changed my mind and I'm glad I did, having seen some painter calipers at various meets, they really aren't worth drawing attention to. I would paint them black if you don't like the cast iron look.

 

I agree, they really do not look very appealing so they are best left as they are IMO

I did my front ones black and they look OK.

Will get round to doing my rears soon.

 

I did mine red on a black car and the fronts did not come out too well. My painting skills rather than the paint. The rears were much better but I will not do it to my new car (when I finally get it). I would however like some Brembo or the like for the new car and not for the stopping power but just for the looks. Anyone tried this and any luck?

 

Brembo big brake kit for the S comes in at >

 

S2000-Europe was recently selling a rather -looking set of 4 pot Spoon discs and calipers - there are some photos in the FS&W forum. I think he was looking for
