    Id keep em black with a white logo. That really is a ton of wasted rotor, but hey if it makes you happy then so be it.

      Well, the Subaru Legacy Twin Turbo we have at our shopp, has the OEM 4 piston caliper and bigger rotor than what comes normally in Subarus GT or similar, yet it has a big rotor for what the caliper it's, has almost the same "wasted" surface (sp?) as mine and it's OEM I don't think mine is a waste of rotor size for what bites the caliper, sure it has it's part wich won't make any contact with the pad, but it has more dissipation (sp?) of heat than a smaller rotor for my 16" rim.

      I think I will paint it silver.

        I vote body color w/ Wilwood logo. Brakes matching your body is the epitome of understanded bling.

          Diego, I can't seem to get a good looking silver like you want. It turns out fairly dark and flat.

              Gotcha. No prob. I'm not sure what to do yet, I think black won't stand that much time. ANy other color will be used.

              Thanks!!

                Diego , I don't think that having or wanting a nice red is bling at all .
                As long as the caliper is obviously a preformance caliper it is ok in my book .




                My calipers are Brembos and came red and I think they look good inside of the right wheels that show them off .
                A little bling is good as long as the part preforms ...hell why not show off your shit ?

                  It's the little details that matter, and it's always nice to see something a little different...Seeing as red calipers are far past over-used.

                  Red does look good on most colors though, Yellow/Gold is the only option though.
