I did a couple of photochops but can't access them from work, will post later. Obviously doing brakes on my car soon, and have narrowed it down to two colors for the calipers/brackets: Yellow and Red. The red to me is pretty played out, but looks good. The yellow would REALLY attract attention to the GT4 calipers up front (and hopefully rear down the road) and frankly in the chop didn't look too bad.

So what say ye, discerning eye of the 6GC.net world? Yellow or Red?

Photo's tonight, I swear.

PS. I know this is about brake calipes, but felt it was better suited for External Styling because it isn't based around mechanics at all. Mods please move it I fubar'd the right forum. biggrin.gif

The problem with it is that my powdercoater won't be able to color match the car. The paint has too much of a dynamic fluctuating color to try to match in a powdercoat.

Believe it or not, the yellow didn't look half bad when I photoshopped it. I couldn't make it as bright as I wanted, but it didn't look terrible at all. I may be able to post the pics this afternoon as I have to get out of work to go to the Dr. w/my wife, and I am snagging the rest of the day after that.

I kind of like the yellow for the fact that it would really bring attention to the fact that "Hey, there's something going on with the brakes."

At least I didn't put blue as an option. My wife suggested it, I did a photoshop rendition, and she promptly said "Delete that ****e." biggrin.gif
