Hey where do you guys order your caliper painting kits??? and what color do you think would look best on a 1999 blak avant?
I want to hear opinons thanks!!

 

I would go with black paint and then put white audi ring decals. (which can be found on egay). That would look amazing. black on black with white ring decals

 

Yeah taht would look ****** sick....
What would you seach on ebay to find thos decals?

 

White Ring Decals

Enjoy!

 

I am going to paint my calipers this weekend. My avant is blue and I am gonna paint my calipers grey/gunmetal or something like that. I like that idea of the audi rings too. I think there is a DIY on it on this site or audizine. All I know is that you shouldn't paint them red. IMO red is for bling or if you REALLY have a brakde upgrade. I wouldn't want to draw attention to my brakes, just ot have the onlooker realize that I just have reglular old stock brakes. Thats my thoughts. Post some pics when you are done ... I will do the same!

 

Yup just orderd that **** 33 bucks for the rings and the paint kit....i took your advice Black paint and White rings Its gona look ****** sick!!! Thanks for the opinon, Ill be sure to post pics as soon as i get it done
Gracias

 

Your thoughts are correct.

generally this is how i like to look at it:

1. Red - Only if you buy a Big Break Kit (BBK) (ex. stoptech) Red on stock calipers is so overused nowadays taht it just makes the car ugly.
2. Black/Yellow/Silver - Awesome to use on your stock brakes. Especially black and yellow , even for BBK. Ive seen few silver Stage 3 S4's with Yellow BBK and they were amazing.

Ofcorse this is just my opinoin, at the end of the day one should do as one sees best.

 

make sure you follow the DIY instructions carefully on this site or wherever you get them from.

 

For your ride, I think the black w/ white rings would look hot.
Here are my stockers for a B7 done in red....
