What colour calipers?

[martybelfastt5]

blue or gold for me.........more gold i think

[Jamest5r]

Same colour as the bodywork for me more classy mate that's what I did with mine lol

I want orange on mine. How much is this costing you

It's about £250 a set, for strip refurb, new seals etc, and paint. For a little extra they'll do a composite ceramic coating, and guarantee them for 5 years. Hopefully i'll be able to get a deal, as I'll have the 2 sets from the S60, plus a set of AP's from the 850!

Being a little controversial hear but isn't having a discreet car the part that makes out performing the next car more fun. Personally I think the bright colours are too much for the car as they're is nothing else on the car that's bright and shouting out. Chris stay discreet, if you want something better that the original colour go slightly lighter with a silver, better still swap the colours, paint the caliper body the same colour as the R badge and paint the R in the current colour of the caliper body

Cool I thought about £300 so you just send them the whole caliper and they rebuild it?

A buddy of mine had his Big Reds done in orange, superb job. They come back like brand new.

As a bit of a designer I would suggest you either paint them silver or black. I feel that any other colour, due to the colour of your vehicle, will kill it. If you had a black vehicle that would be a different story. Just my suggestion but as it's your vehicle you do what pleases you.

note kidding. weather its oe or not, it dosnt float my boat. but thats my opinion and im sticking with it. if you dont agree with it not my problem. the rear bumper looks like some one has just drove through halfords and stuck some fibre glass spats on off a evo or sumit
