Caliper Painting... Cool or Tacky?

oh please, you can bash on any mods out there.

He is right thou. Unless you track your car your factory brakes are 100% capable. BBK are just a dress up item for 90% of the cars they go on.

but i agree, stock brakes do the job and a car is just a car. it takes you to point A to point B.

I was thinking of doing the calipers on the M6 in red. and putting white BMW Performance logos on them. They look like crap as is and its not like they are small brakes like on a civic or something. The factory M6 Brakes are big. (BTW the car is Alpine White w/ Black Leather with red alcantera inserts )

a close up would be nice.

You must be an excellent judge of people - on your own planet. Nope, mine are still the original color. I'll likely powdercoat mine silver down the line, to keep them from looking rusty as time passes, and because I think it would look better with my black on black M Coupe.
If mine were red on red like his, I'd have them powerdercoated red with the BMW lettering stenciled on in black, and probably paint the rims black with red Time Attack lines, ala stephenti's original look.

Thanks. I'm glad my car is on the better side. Ya I agree with you, M6 calipers are so so. Figured powder coating was better than 5k+ for brembos since the car will probably never see a track.
