With Spring upon us and the summer season just around the corner, has anyone given any thought to painting your brake calipers. If so what is the most popular colour?

Post up some pics if you have any. I will start. Will try and find a closer image but I did them in yellow last year.

I chose yellow because I saw a picture of a Gray Ferrari with yellow calipers and thought it looked great.

Black! But only because everyone paints them yellow or red (or occasionally blue).

Though, your car does look very nicely setup, and the yellow just adds a hint of flair to top it off. I suggest getting rid of all the ugly coloured side markers - I think it will make it look a little cleaner.

I would like to do mine black but have the powder coated or epoxied so they dont wear or fade

I like doing mine in silver- nothing special, they just look brand new and clean. I like black too.

ya that would look pretty nice to in silver... never really though about it. i was thinking black for brake dust. mind you i have ceramics so its not as bad.

I agree, Silver looks nice. Makes the calipers look new, but doesnt scream I am pretending to have a big brake kit on my car...just my opinion.

Here is a shot of the ones on my old passat.... Can't take any of my audi because I still have the winter steel rims on (another 10 cm of snow tomorrow)
