i have a 2000 GS3 Crystal White ........i was wonderimg what color should i paint my calipers???My rims are Hyperblack and has a chrome lip!!!!

 

white car = red
silver car = black
black car = black/red
blue car = black/silver
green car = red (christmas woohoo!!!)

Oh..you got jokes huh?! hahaha! It's all good fun

On white, I'd go red also...just makes it stand out more (unless you were going for a more subtle approach, then id say black or silver).

 

red is my choice..black if you want to be subtile.

 

Mine is silver with the lexus logos

 

i would do the red or silver to showb up behind those rims

 

white or silver with darker caliper stickers if applicable?

 

black or gray. ther bright colors like red look stupid on a GS. it ain't no porsche or ferrari. keep it classy bra.

 

Red on black will pop nicely.

However,

I would stay understated if they are OEM calipers, especially if they are not BBK level. I would be OK with the 06 GS430 4-piston calipers going red but not the 2GS 2-piston variety. In this case, black would be my choice. Silver would be OK too but it would be even less noticed (but still nice) than the darker OEM "color".

 

thanks for all ur cl guys help.......i probably go with the black since i want to be subtile!!and with silver decals!!!!!!!!

 

I have black with white decals on stock calipers, with Diamond White Pearl car. Looks great with aftermarket wheels. Doesn't scream "I have stock calipers!".
Here's a hint: Get the BEST quality caliper paint you can find. You don't want to have to do it over if it chips off. I used Plastikote Brake Caliper Paint, seemed to work great, but is starting to chip. I clearcoated over them, and with the stickers, it's gonna be a biotch to touch up properly.

 

Good choice to paint them black. You cant paint stock GS calipers red. They are small and just wont look right.

 

i've got a crystal white 2002 gs. painted my calipers black with the brushed aluminium decal. awesome! don't forget to clear coat. i didn't and they peeled right off.

did you swap the stock rotors for cross drilled and slotted, zinc plated? that makes the whole brake assembly stand out even more. i did my replaced my rotors for $250.00 and $100.00 labor. i sold my old ones on ebay for $100.00. my net cost was $250.00 and it looks like the **** !!!!

 

White Car + Red Calipers =
