Gonna sort out my calipers next week , they are currently rusty matt black ...

But i am torn between gunmetal grey or gloss black ... i think the grey will look nice and subtle , but they were obviously blakc to begin with ...

Under no circumstances will i be painting them red , blue or any other lairy colour .... :rolleyes:

Opinions please ?
 
No red Sean ;)

You know me , Mr Subtle ..... :D
 
how long does the paint stay on? my preference would be gun grey
 
Hopefully permanently ;)

Its a 50/50 split so far ..... :crazy:
 
i done mine a a soft shine black, basically Halfods engine paint!

came out really nice, better than the rusty browny color it was before!
 
If you are confident of getting a good finish then deffo Grey, if not then black!
 
I used hammerite black and went on quite smooth, and lasted for well over 60k miles.
 
Hmmmm ...

What about gold ?

Probably a little bit of a clash, still think Grey :) . Gold suits a white car / white wheels. But as usual, its your car, its not the end of the world if you experiment and you dont like it and change it again.
