I drive a lightning yellow Ralliart, and am planning on doing the calipers. Problem is, I can't find any paint that matches perfectly, and I'm not positive that red calipers goes with my overall yellow/black theme. Would powder coating them with the matching paint be the best option? Anyone done this?

 

I think you'd be better off painting them black. Yellow calipers don't look right.

 

yeah...black is stealth..

 

black

 

You guys are brilliant, and I clearly am not. I also discovered that our calipers are cast very rough, and need to be grinded to a smoother surface to avoid dulling any color. Except for black of course. Brilliant. Thank you.

 

I was gunna say go red.
I think it looks good. Ive got the whole black an yellow thing going on as well
Just tape em off an spray em.Took me around an hour to do all 4.

 

my RA is black, i did the calipers red about a month ago using the duplicolor kit. the trick is to clean the crap out of them first, and put 5 coats on. they give you tons of paint, so it's more of a patience thing really. the only time they look dull is when they're really dirty.

 

yellow can look good,
my uncle(SP?) has a moroon magna with yellow calipers and looks awesome

 

RED AND YELLOW IS COOL.

 

I think red calipers look good with any color.

Personally I think yellow on yellow looks just fine.
