Agree Tim that's where I got the idea, after seeing the M135 & M235 thought they looked great. After having the problem ith the discoluoring of the calipers I thought I'd give it a go. Not usually into sticking M badges on my cars but after painting them blue I think the badges finished them off. Even the wife agreed

I so need to re-do mine at some point they are in an awful condition.

Depends if I can be bothered to find someone to do it xD

Wonder what colours go well with Silver Gray..

Red or if you want more conservative, black or silver. All would look good on silver

Red would be tempting, what about an Orange?

I guess it would look OK, personally I wouldn't though

Hmm I would probably go either red, silver or a really in your face green. Food for thought, and maybe some photoshopping at some point.

More importantly would need to find a place that wont require an arm and a leg to do them for me, as dont fancy doing it myself

You guys reckon dull gold calipers might look good on an Orion Silver E89?

Looks great Kermit......thinking of doing my Alpine White in the same blue.....expensive though for what it is.

jimbo it is expensive,but the finish is fantastic compared to hammerite.The kit will do 8 calipers. i wasted alot of paint,made half the kit up to do 4 & got 3 coats on each caliper.Got the half of it left.

Yep think I'm gonna order once I've talked myself into it. Nice to know you've got half the paint left to repaint in a year or so's time.
