Need to paint my calipers again as the garage did a crappy job.

Now do i go silver again, black or red ?

Picture of the car.

Yellow on the Alabaster Silver.
But being an R I would say red.

It is not a RUF/Porsche

Silver Caliper
"Type" in black
"R" in red

If it were my car I would do the caliper in yellow and writing in black for contrast.

Red or silver

 

[Syx]

Silver IMO as it allows the lettering to stand out when that's painted too!

 

[shaunwistow]

Yellow

Red

what paint do you use I been thinking of doing mine. I am hoping it will last

 

[Foulsmell]

Small tin of hammerite smooth. Quick rub down with a wire brush, Couple of coats with a brush. Done for £6. ?

 

[shrek101]

Thanks but hammerite takes a while to dry. Problem I have is the road where I live is on a slope, I can move car about 30 metres and its flat so I can use a jack. I cant get car up driveway as its too step and front mudflap scrape my od focus had no such problem even when I had mudflaps fitted, civic is quite low

 

[Foulsmell]

Oh yeah don't do the rears they look too small when painted. ?

 

[D-reame]

Anthracite grey with red writing

Touch dry in 1-2 hours and recoat after 4 if this helps.
