Brake caliper color theme - post a picture of your calipers

This topic is meant to post a picture (or more of them) of your painted calipers :camera: . It is desirable for a large portion of the car to be seen so one can see how a particular caliper color matches the rim and the car.

I won't start with pictures because my calipers aren't painted yet :D

:worthless:

How do these look? One of my 1st jobs when I got the car as the rusty looking original calipers spoiled the look of the car in my opinion.

Was sort of forced into red on mine as I went with a red Brembo caliper at the front. Quite like it, but the red shows the brake dust super easily!

Here is a smattering of photos in no particular order!

My Z4 has an Imola Red interior and it came with red calipers and the strut behind the kidney grilles.

I had mine nicely finished by fellow forum member Zedebee when I purchased the car, but a stuck front caliper meant replacing which resulted in a new paint job.

Opted for a light matte grey this time.. not the neatest of finishes as was done by hand but happy with the outcome.
