hi guys, whats a nice color for a c63 caliper? ive come up with some colors i like and cant decide which to paint.

I think yellow looks better compared to the green. Black or blue could be an option also.

If I can't vote for red I won't vote at all. Orange should be reserved for carbon ceramics, lime green for ricers. Yellow is better than stock grey, but RED is where it's at.

I figured you were looking for bright colors based on the choices but had to throw it in there . Here is another thread I came across with some examples, maybe it will help some. https://mbworld.org/forums/c63-amg-w...p-me-pick.html

This is a c63, not a lambo. Leave the bright in your face colors to the big boys and ricers.

Blue can certainly pop if you get the right shade. The ZR1's jetstream blue calipers sure stand out.

Before anyone askes, that's not my car, and I'm 99% sure those aren't ZR1 calipers. They are a great looking blue, but jetstream blue is a bit lighter

we should just turn this into an official caliper color thread.

post pics of our setups, sticky it, and that way new members can see the different looks.

I think Yellow would definitely look good with that color.
