is it me or does GTR gold look orange?
where did you get the caliper paint or did you just use the honda touch up paint? I'm seeing on the GTR boards it's paint code YR532M

The color looks orange to me too, like a copper orange.

I would say yellow would stand out nicely on USB, but i have always been attracted to a shiny copper color.

When i painted my brakes, I did two coats just to be safe. A nice thin layer and then a normal layer

That yellow looks awesome on those wheels. You have any pic with the stock wheels on? And what color yellow did you use?

Dude, that looks sick. I love the yellow and orange on the USB's...I have a SGM and I'm leaning toward being bold with orange or yellow

its PPG automotive paint. the GTR is a three stage paint. can't be matched with just one can. its gold that flops to orange.l

the inca pearl found on the nsx is no w here near the gtr. its not even that close to the oem brembos that come on the 350z/g35/sti either. while it matches some what for little touch up, its more of a straight up gold.

NSX inca pear.




350z brembo...way more orange.,




GTR brembos
