black with red

**DarkSideCelica** · 01-15-2007, 04:34 PM

red calipers are for ricer imo... and it attract too much unwanted attention too (from both police and thieves)

**Pineapple** · 01-15-2007, 04:37 PM

Red and red or Red caliper and black rotor. You don't want same/similar color as the rims.

true... but my 2nd concern abt the attention is the bigger issue imo

**Pineapple** · 01-15-2007, 05:01 PM

Thief will go for rims then calipers. They'll need to take the whole car to get the calipers.

How would it draw attention? Some cars come stock with painted calipers.... if it would draw attention i doubt they would do it....

**DarkSideCelica** · 01-15-2007, 05:10 PM

only "OEM" caliper tht are "colored" (meaning powdercoated in most cases) are the brembo ones off the G35.... besides tht one, i've not really seen anything else....

do red if u want... i'm pretty sure it will look nice..... for me tho, my philosophy has always been, and will always be, keep it on the lowdown... do mods tht perform, but not attract too much attention :)

**MartinGouda** · 01-15-2007, 05:38 PM

you are wrong, there are stock gold,red,green,yellow and other color calipers including brembo's in black red and gold avalible on sti's and 350z's and other cars... i've seen project u's on cars in pink and i think burcold put it best...... WILWOOD CALIPERS CAN NEVER BE CALLED RICE

I'm sorry man but 4 piston 3 piece calipers with carbon Kevlar pads being pushed by an integra type r master cylinder through braided lines clamping down on two piece, cross drilled rotors that are the same size as the stock rims on the del sol s. all this mounted on GSR spindles and mounted with new wheel bearings and you wanna call it rice cause i painted it red?

i think you really need to think before you throw "ricer" out there. i mean if you wanna call a honda ricey it really shouldn't be the turbocharged delsol with porsche paint on 17's with baller stoppers.

if there is anything my car ISN'T, it's ricey.

i mean i need 17's just to clear these breaks and it's still going to be tight.
