Brake Caliper Painting.....

[jxp]

So think I might paint my calipers when I chenge the discs n pads.

But what colour......Red seems to be a cracking colour but what do you think. My car is , wll,not quite silver-need to check paint code, with black kit.

Any pics of your rocco with painted calipers.

Cheers

Red is the only colour in my opinion. But hammerite smooth silver would be the only other option..

But hey, thats my preference..

[Chaps]

Red all the way...

I agree. Did mine blue not long ago to be different. I'm now changing to red. Red is common because it looks the best, end of.

Red all the way

Cheers guys, red it is.

Next question do I pay for caliper paint or just use halfords engine paint...which is far cheaper..

[Shayn8v]

Red Hammerite smooth. You can get it in a little tin for about £5.00. Find yourself a paintbrush and your away!

black, black, paint it all black then at least it will look ok once they start to go again.

I did mine in body colour, doesnt look too bad when first done but as i rarely clean the calipers they look more black than purple anyway



If i were to do it again i'd go with black - never looks dirty

My mum used this to get a new car and got the full £2000. The car was mint and had only 50,000 miles on the beginning of this year. Unbelieveable car, eletric everything....still its a square Datsun !!
