What Colour...

[SpokesT]

You lot having convinced me I should keep the Lexus after my brief wobble of a couple of weeks ago, I have decided to do something to assist in the retention of the bonding already in place with my Nippon beauty by treating her to a bit of make up. PLenty of advice on how to paint up my calipers, and it is superbly presented, but one thing is missing:

Colour schemes!

My IS200 is a blue one, (which I am reliably informed :-) is only on the fastest cars) so what would be the best colour for the calipers? I know it's down to personal choice obviously, but seeing is believing etc. Has anyone gone for the garishness of yellow, yellow and blue being opposites on the colour wheel and all? Or are muted tones more effective? Some guidance here, por favor...

I think I'll wait until this fekkin wind stops as I'll have to paint em out on the drive cos no space in the garage

I personally think Red looks the best!

But with the ammount of brake dust always on my calipers by the end of the week, I would now do black with white lexus caliper stickers!

I'm edging towards gold... with red as a possibility.... or maybe blue... but not yellow any more

Red gets my vote! :D

Red does stand out more, I personally went for blue to match the colour of the car and also because I won't have anything red on, in or near my car

I have black calipers on my blue sport, with white curved lexus decals. :)
