    Custom BBK Done: Silver or Red?

    Just wanted to get some opinions. I'm planning to paint the calipers either red or silver, grid the "wilwood" logo, leave it flat and probably dropp a "BMW" vynil in there or soemthign else, then cover with clear coat as a final finish for the paint.
    Not sure wich will look better or blinger, keep in mind those rims are going to be silver, just like OEM color,but not sure is siliver on those calipers will reflect the thing


    Suggestion?

      Id paint them the color of the car or leave them black. I would not go red or silver.

          Leave them as is. A good looking car doesn't need it and your car is good looking.

                well, you know, Porches come with either, black or red calipers, and red calipers look very good, I know my car is not a Porsche, either pretend to make it look like that, but still, I might paint them....I also thought about same color as body ( blue )

                Does someone knows how to phtoshopp them in those three colors? RED; SILVER and BLUE? Would be awesoem to see the differences. Thanks

                      Black.

                      Uh, how come the caliper/pad doesn't even come close to covering the face of the rotor?

                        Yeah, seems like that is a lot of wasted rotor.

                        Looks awesome though Diego. I vote for leaving them just as they are - black with the white Wilwood logo.

                          I would leave them black and paint the logo the color of the car! Aha!

                              Bodycolor, keep the logo, make the logo black.

                              That is all.
