Brake caliper colour

[Bing]

Silver - nice and clean

 

[ZeeFore]

The right shade of green might go well with a grey Z (sterling grey?)

Of course you'd have to put up with all the "frogs caught in your wheels" jokes.

It's yer Zed ...
Do your own thing.
You only have to please yourself!
Plus if it's only paint ...
Well no prob to change it if you don't like it !

You never know ..
You might be setting a new trend.

Cheers

I'm liking the sound of light pink or orange.

Silver won't go with grey.!

I'm going to photoshop it to see what it will look like. If pink looks daft I won't do it - I don't want to ruin her good looks! :wink:

What about the bolt/clip on to your original calipers, paint them pink as its easy to do with them off the car
And easy to repaint if you don't like the colour

 

[Emj12312]

No, please, not pink Z4s again. You know how I get when you all do this

As for your brake calipers Emma, I reckon a you could get away with a metal list silvery pastel pink. But if you're going to tidy them up you'll need to do the hubs too - what colour for them ? :?

Found the perfect one:



What do you think?

Very Bet Lynch,

 

[It's a fair cop...]

So the car rolls up looking cool in sterling, we clock the pastel pink calipers and you jump out flashing your tatts....sorry, I couldn't help but think the car is your gimps

I've never been a fan of the turbine wheels....and the exhausts could do with a polish.

What on earth does gimps mean?! Lol

Go orange with silver spring clips and hubs, I'm biased cause that's what I've got, but it sure looks cool. Done the calipers with plasticote aerosol and hubs and springs with aluminium paint. Just my tupence worth.

We should have a rogues gallery of shite Zeds.

That one, the pink one, the dragon one, some of the truly dire stanced ones.

Any more?

This is a great idea.

That leather effect one was weird. Brad's is hanging in the balance too.

 

[Carsonking]

How about the yellow one with red leather and walnut dash, I expect he's still for sale. I'd go with burbury on the callipers, chav it right up.

I painted my silver Zed's calipers and hubs silver and they look good to me.

Tom's silver coupe has orange calipers and I think they look great - have a look at the 'National Meet' or last Lake District meet, pictures and you'll see some close ups.

It's your Zed - you set it up as you like it - I've got white lettering on my tyres - it divides opinion but I don't care - I love it every time I look at it and that's what matters.

Good idea to photoshop though - give pink a try.

 

[hype]

Might look something like this?

 

[RubyBlueZ4MC]

Even though I'm very much an all-things-pink-loving girl, just not keen on the pink caliper idea. Thats just my opinion though. You should do whatever you like

 

[Emj12312]

Ahhhhhh that looks awesome!!!

 

[StevenH72]

If you go with pink callipers, I think you'll have to get some pink accenting elsewhere also.

Could work....but you'll have to commit to the idea....if a job's worth doing :wink:
