Default calipers
I need the opinion of the experts. What color calipers would look best with a cyber grey convertible with kalahari 2lt interior

Thanks

I'm going red with that same configuration. I may switch kalahari to grey interior but I havent decided yet. Wife doesn't like the red, we both think there is a bit too much orange in kalahari, but black with Cyber Grey is too boring. Usually I think Grey interiors are boring, but it seems to really work in some of the pictures I've seen (other parts of the dash and steering wheel have a silver/grey look to them).

Anyway, the truth is that either red or yellow will look very sharp. I'm going with red to keep the tone down a bit

The color I like best is on the base braking system. The gray/gunmetal color blends in with the rotor.
