We all make mistakes
New wheels fitted today thought i would paint my calipers as they're looking a bit shabby
Seeing as the car is black and the interior is black and the wheels are black thought i would add a little bit of colour, so i thought i would paint my calipers orange mistake
Pictures actually make it look better in reality just didn't look right i think its going to be gloss black or silver
Who was i trying to fool it's not a lamborghini :P

Re: We all make mistakes
bit too bright I think..
maybe if you darken the orange to a more burnt colour, you may find something better?

Re: We all make mistakes
Have to agree, that's a bit Corsa.
Maybe some massive drilled disks would work, but not your current set up.

Re: We all make mistakes
yeah, that looks horrible Halfrauds type set up...
well done for having a go mind you, but I think it needs bigger brakes/more mental car to pull that off...

Re: We all make mistakes
Don't dislike either, a darker coloured orange would make it perfect for me

Re: We all make mistakes
Add some orange vinyl stickers to the car perhaps. At the moment, they do stick out.

Re: We all make mistakes
I like red with black but fluorescent green would look better than orange.
Love the wheels by the way.
