Thanks. Originally i was going to have the calipers painted black. While my car was being done, mate rang and said red calipers would suit your black car. It was too late to change. Since picking it up i think it looks quite jazzy. Although not to everyones taste.

nice wheels, but i would rather paint the calipers black, no reason to attract attention to the calipers. the caliper kinda steals the attention from the wheel.

enjoy!

Thanks, that was my original intention but now they are red i can get used to them, and the colour does suit an all black car.
