i have a galaxy grey 4dr si. i have flat black 5zigen fn01rc's. i am about to put new pads and lines on the car, and noticed how bland the stock calipers looked. i was curious as to how rice it would look to paint the calipers a red or gloss black. i was not really interested, until i saw someone with painted red calipers behind the same color fn01rc's. it actually looked okay. any ideas? i'm trying to stay with a clean look, and don't want to rice the car out, just curious how that might look.

i painted mine when i first got my rims. they started to flake and chip. so i removed with aircraft remover. if you do it. do a few coats, and take the caliper off.

 

did they look okay? what color wheels and calipers?

 

black car, black wheels, red calipers (played out i know)
looked good while it was fresh.

 

Believe me when I say it wont be rice, as long as theres no red underglow you should be fine. The red calipers always looks good with the red on the Si's because its not to much. Now if you had some bright *** green ones, then it would be riced out.
