My 06 Progress

[L_King]

SO I need to brakes soon. I cant decide between black calipers with a silver logo or gold with a black logo

Im sure you all can imagine what black looks like so I photoshopped gold calipers.

What do you all think?

 

[Ben's LS]

I say gold. Gives it a little contrast.

 

[G-RELL]

go GOLD!!!

 

[jjcool00]

My god we need this big brake upgrade... everytime I see these tiny rotors I cry a little - like the Native Americans in the Keep America Beautiful commercials .

 

[G-RELL]

They're average size :shifty:

 

[mlara1129]

+1000 for gold

 

[L_King]

What caliper paint are you guys using?

 

[waggs]

I like those Goodyear eagles, that what I put on my 03 LS handles great.

My god we need this big brake upgrade...

Don't worry hehe

What caliper paint are you guys using?

I used VHT gold caliper paint SP736:

I was very satisfied with the results eventhough I didnt even prep properly...and it goes without saying that I will be using it (same color as well) again on my Jag Big Brakes.

That LS looks great L King! Nice!

 

[G-RELL]

I used gold enamel engine block paint and engine clear... also didn't prep great, but so far they're perfect...

Need a quick opinion from everyone. I ordered the brakes yesterday. Should be here in a few days. The question is Which route to go with claiper color.

Options:
Gold Enamel like G-RELL

Gold Caliper paint like Mlara1129

Or VHT Burnt copper:

Similar in colors but slightly different....

opinions?

 

[LS4me]

Burnt copper. IMHO.

 

[Ben's LS]

[RodLS]

That burnt copper looks really good.

 

[Bullschmidt]

[RigsLS]
