Barolo red c63 with yellow calipers?




Contemplating wether i should get my calipers painted yellow, black out my grill, and vinyl wrap the top black. Don't really know what else to do cosmetically, opinions are much appreciated!

Before you do any of those things you've listed, I believe you should replace those side markets. A painted side marker to match the rest of the car will look pretty damn good

I considered it but was concerned that it might be too much of a contrast??
Here's where you are headed:

As the other barolo red owner here, i would not go yellow. Put the $ towards other stuff, like if you don't have a tune yet, or tires, or 2-pc rotors, etc.

Off topic, more barolo love, at the tire shop getting PSS the other day (265 rears!):

^^ ditto with CZ55... save your money from the calipers & get a drop... and maybe wheels in the future.
