I think my first "small project" will be painting my calipers.
I'm stuck between the two painting/sticker combo's. What do you folks think?

your car is black correct? I've got silver calipers with red rings on my black TT I had the red with black rings before, it got old after awhile.

Red is to brembo poserish and not a big fan of the rings on the calipers. Shoot, go yellow and stand out.

thought about yellow.. went with red because thats what paint I had. thinking black would be best because light colors show break dust pretty quickly.
