Caliper colors
Debating with a freind. What color do I paint the calipers on a Torch Red coupe? Black or red? If anyone has pics of various colors on a torch red, please post. Thanks.

I went with the red but I think black would look as good if you are doing black in other places on the car..It is just going to come down to your preference.

I like the red, but black with red letters would look good too.

Looks like red is going to win. I just wasn't sure if red on red was too much. I love red on every other car - it really stands out. Oh and talon90 and Jackalope thanks for the pics!

Red looks very nice I AGREE
I see you have a black Vette and the red looks nice, I would never do black on a black car. The original poster has a red Vette and I think it would look good. Just mho and he did ask for it. Peace my brother.
