need another photochop job... pretty please
OK, I am wanting to have m car stand out a little more and I can get this done by painting the calipers, but since my car is a dark red I dont know how it would look by adding red calipers... can someone add some red calipers OR any other color suggestions to see what would look best.... I VERY much appreciate it!!!

Don't do red calipers with dark red body. Not a good color combination.
Leave it silver, or go with black calipers with all white AMG lettering. Kinda like this.

I vote for silver. The MB is a very industrial design, and lends itself well to black and silver components. Of the two, silver would complement the Bordeaux red a bit better in my not-so-humble opinion.

thanks for all the replys and suggestions!! I will look to see if I can find a pic of an ML55 with the same paint scheme... funny that out of all the photochops the yellow looks the best, but I know thay only works on super cars (like ferrari's etc...) so that is out of the question. I would LOVE to get a color to match my car, but that would be way too involved (finding a company that could make some high temp paint). So my quest continues....

too funny, I just saw a dark red porsche 911 drive by with red calipers and it didnt look too bad, think I might try it out. I will color just the rears and see how it looks. I already painted the rears silver to match the fronts and can replant them back if I dont like it....
