Well, Im going to repaint my calipers because the paint on them now is faded and peeling and looks like crap. They're red at the moment and I cant decide if I should keep them red or try another color. I was thinking of copper/bronze but cant find any high temp paint that color so I am now leaning towards red or gold. Im also debating sticking an audi logo on them when I paint them. Agree or disagree and what color combo? Thanks in advance for your opinions.

Here is a pic of the car and my current wheels if it helps:

 

What about silver. I think that would look nice and clean.

 

Man up!!

 

Though the magenta is tempting I actually have been considering silver. I would look like I always have brand new calipers and they would still stand out decently.

Since I couldnt find the copper color I was originally looking for, I played with some duplicolor products and got the color I liked but I showed it to a few people and got mixed reviews. Ill probably decide by the weekend. Worst case, I can just paint them over.

 

 

You know.. you dont really have to get 'hi-temp' paint.. as long as you clean and prep really good, normal enamel paint should hold up. If you really want copper, look at Rustoleums 'Hammered Metal' line..

 

VEry true on not using high temp paint. Ive been painting my calipers on all cars ive owned and never used high temp paint. I havent painted my calipers in 2 years and they still look fresh.

 

Thanks for all the input guys, I actually decided on silver and Im going to put some plain black 4 ring decals on the fronts. I think itll look clean and understated.

 

^^ Good choice... clean and simple
