I would go with what Oz60R did on his black R and paint the calipers Yellow. They look sick! Lambo green is a good choice too but would be a little too weird for our caRs.

 

Yeah Ians car looks sick, he's actually from bow (where I lay my head) too. But I'm thinking about goin for the lime green. What do you think about the idea to tape off the R on the rims and match that to the calipers? with black wheels. Should look sweet right

 

It will definitely look unique and probably would be sick. Yeah Ians car is definitely one of the nicest cars I've seen. He even gave me a ride in it haha. I thought my exhaust was loud until I heard his dual setup.

 

So I went and photoshopped lime green calipers + R on a picture I found. Not a very good photoshop but I think it will give you an idea.

 

Jesus that looks horrible... :thumbsdown:

 

Wow that looks sick George. Thank you! I'm going with lime green. Case closed lol. Any other thoughts?

 

I guess the only thought is that you should be careful when painting the calipers. Don't want any paint in moving parts.

 

Should look ****ing awesome, granted they are only 17s but I think I will be happy with the result. REALLY excited about the exhaust. Have you ever heard of Lou's custom in manchester?

 

I'm partial to the specific shade of blue used on the R's gauges and stitching. I think matching the calipers and the R on black pegs to that blue would look great and tie everything together nicely.

 

georgie, my parents have a beach place in rye and im going to be down there next weekend (hopefully aftr i get my exhaust and painting done, maybe we ciould meet up????

 

Dude I'm going to DC next weekend.... Definitely some other time.

 

I did not refinish my wheels yet but did paint the calipers last year.. Also a good time to flush brake fluid and replace brake lines if needed.

Post you results..

 

also, where will we get the lambo lime green caliper paint????

 

Go to a Lambo dealership

 

Nice brembo rotors. Do you know where I can get 4 Brembo rotors and calipers for my S60r 07. I've been having trouble finding them.

 

hmm probably wouldnt osama bin laden hiack the thread... start your own, thanks..

 

go with whatever color ya feel maaaaan! i like both your options of lime green and orange

cheers

 

Whats wrong with red? arent most brembos red?

 

Hate to be a copy cat but where do you get that bremo stecil.... wel werrre home towners, i hope you got that catless DP installed!!!!

 

No that definitely looks good it's just not as rare as I would like. What part of Nh are you from?

 

also do you have any full car side profile pics?

 

Honestly I don't think lime green will look good on our caRs... I'd definitely go either for red or yellow but like you said, it's your car and it's your decision.

 

Hah yeah the sober side of me thinks you may be right. Typically my Friday/Saturday night posts are not my finest. But on a serious note, what is the best/most efficient way to go about this to ensure long lasting color, not chipped crap?

 

If you pant it properly, and get high heat resistant caliper paint (900 degree +) stuff, you should be fine. Follow the instructions and if necessary, add a couple of coats. PS, don't do what my friend did and spray clear coat on it.. It will melt off and possibly catch on fire

 

A guy with a s40 did yellow calipers and front emblem to match the yellow dancing moose. You should get a green fender stripe too. Or something. Accent your car with green to make the brakes pop with your car better. Like maybe a green roof spoiler. Something like that but probably not that.

 

Green roof spoiler? ugh! "shivvers"

 

So i decieded i would be traditional,

The brake dust shield is a good idea.
