Default Pewter with Red calipers
Looking for some photos of Pewter C5's with Red calipers. A friend of mine has a Pewter Vette and is unsure of the red calipers. :cool:

John,

Sent you an email with a side view of my car. Maybe Indy will post a picture of his car; he has a better shot of red calipers...

Here's a nother shot of a red caliper & Lt. Pewter

I've used the same kind of paint as "Pewter C5" used, just plain old rustoleum red. I've had the paint on for over 2 years with no flakeing or peeling.
