PIC REQUEST - Silver 211s w/ painted calipers
I've searched for days, no good pics of a silver 211 with painted calipers. Getting ready to put on some Evo rotors and am considering getting the calipers done. Yellow, blue, red? Post 'em up please...........TIA

RED is classic and cant go wrong.
YELLOW was the thing to do (I did it, changed to red)
BLUE is very nice and is gonna be the next trend IMO. I also think blue will look hot on a silver car.

I agree with the analysis. I would recommend blue as I think it would look great on your car. Check out the brakes on the Corvette ZR1 as a reference.

Black car Black rims gotta go red calipers IMO. Red will never be played out it is classic cant go wrong. the other colors will get played out first.

I've since had them repainted a slightly "darker" yellow and it looks much better.

That blue IMO is to dark. The color I like is more of a royal blue. Let me see if I can find the picture.
