Red or yellow,either would look good.
However my favourite would be yellow.

Im actually in the same boat, Im gonna repaint the calipers on my guards red soon. My options are:

1.) Paint Calipers matching Guards Red

2.) Paint Calipers Lambo Yellow (might look too Mcdonalds?)


To the OP, I would go with yellow on a Seal Grey, would look more unique.

Orange would look cool and paint the Carrera on the rear orange and get some mirror inserts in orange. That would look racy and one of a kind.

My personal choice would be yellow (that’s what came on my car) but to those that know their P-cars you may look like a poser wannabe.

I'm going yellow not to be a poser but just to dress it up. If I really wanted to be a poser I would put the "S" emblem on the back, change my tips to dual tips, change my gages to white and paint my calipers red. Now that's a POSER!!
