Hi all,

 

After going a little mad over the last couple of weeks with a wire brush and a can of black hammerite...or 3, with any front suspension bit i'm not replacing it now time for the calipers to be done.

 

Should i stay with back or go red to stand out....

 

Or should i do them yellow to match the polly bush kit or blue to match the front springs???????

 

I would do the rear drums to match the calipers also....

 

Not sure on wheels yet either could be compomotive m/l.....laser 4 spokes....or original steels banded and black!!!!

 

I'm doing them tomorrow, decisions decisions....

Keep it understated mate. Go for black for the calipers. Painted drums look poo imo, Just do them black :thumbsup:

Black was the original colour planned so i'll stick with that i think.

 

Cheers for all your help, i'm sure yellow would look equally good but 1 day i'll wake up and change my mind and do them black again anyway :lol:

I don't mind a bit of colour on the calipers, but it has to be a colour you used elsewhere on the car.

 

Dad painted his calipers yellow to go with the lotus badge, and i think they look much nicer than plain black. you can just make them out in the photo next to the engine, sorry i dont have a better one:

I'd deffo go with black mate if it was my car :thumbsup: , my mate with a mk1 fiesta had done his blue to match his car, but all the underneath is blue so it all ties in.
