Ive got a tafetta white integra with the stock ls mesh rims.

I want to paint the calipers red, but the ls mesh rims look kind of dense... like I dont know if it would show up as well on them or if it would look good.

I dont want to waste my money, so does anyone have pics of painted calipers on their ls mesh rims? color doesnt matter

thanks a lot

 

Why would you paint your calipers? If they don't have rust or anything, you are wasting your money.

 

painting your calipers is purely cosmetic (I have a gift for stating the obvious I know), and what is the point of taking time and some money to do a cosmetic upgrade to your calipers if you are going to be rocking meshies. Last time I checked, the acura mesh rims don't offer much of a view of the calipers. My advice:
wait on the painted caliper idea until you upgrade your rims to a more open (and hopefully lighter rim), then if you must paint your calipers cause you like the look of them painted red and have some time to spend doing it....then do it. Though I don't like painted calipers myself........ironic since the teg I bought has red painted calipers ........guess they'll stay that way cause I'm not wasting any time painting them the stock color.
here's a pic of my red calipers with some beatup si rims; I don't think the mesh rims have more of an opening than the si.
