I think they look good as they are 8-)

Scooby Wez 12-01-2010 12:57 AM

Got to agree there they look good gold :doubleup:

666subaru 12-01-2010 03:19 AM

Easy, white mate, as they will stand out behind the orange wheels buddy:yeah:

Steve_PPP 12-01-2010 09:46 AM

i like the calipers in their original colour but they don't look right behind the orange wheels.

agree that white calipers on a white car would look cool :doubleup: just means keeping them clean!

cheers for that steve think thats made my mine up ;) could you try it white:whistle:

worzel 12-01-2010 01:55 PM

I will do that this afternoon for you kind sir!

MrX??? 12-01-2010 02:05 PM

I would say White also,

The Black looks good especially with the Orange lettering but think you will lose the look of the caliper.

White with Orange accent gets my vote:10:

2-jaffacake-tone 12-01-2010 02:40 PM

just a nightmare to keep clean :-? iam useless at deciding colours lol

worzel 12-01-2010 03:02 PM

Here you go.

Doing white and keeping the definition in there was no-where as easy as black, but it'll give you an idea.

MrX??? 12-01-2010 03:13 PM

white it is then:yeah: good initial call by Baz I think:10:


Loads of wax etc etc prior to fitting will help keep clean:nod:

midlife2 12-01-2010 04:26 PM

Sorry but i think black looks better

666subaru 12-01-2010 06:42 PM

Like the black idea with the K in orange too, but it depends if you want them to stand out/show them off:yeah:

BIG"E" 12-01-2010 06:50 PM

Definitely BLACK:nod::nod::nod:


Chromed would look sooooooo gooooood !!!!

gtiteen 13-01-2010 11:22 AM

White would be cool but keeping them clean would be a nightmare and dont think would look good dirty. My votes with black :)

Scottie :) 13-01-2010 01:10 PM

WHITE WHITE WHITE WHITE WHITE :p

crow sti 13-01-2010 02:08 PM

black looks best :10:

Anger 13-01-2010 02:13 PM

As you say the original Orange dosnt look right behind the bright orange wheels... Black gets my vote :10:

C. J. 13-01-2010 07:43 PM

Black , black , black

Scott.T 13-01-2010 10:25 PM

Black

2-jaffacake-tone 13-01-2010 11:45 PM

black it is then:wink:

AndyWRX 14-01-2010 03:22 PM

imo black all the way, but the white does look good, only downside with white is it gets noticeably dirty even after 1 drive and if some dust eats into it, it never looks the same

Chunk 14-01-2010 05:37 PM

Black!!!

I do like the orange wheels
