Default Caliper suggestions...

Can't decide which to do, what do you guys think?
Keep in mind this is just a rough photoshop ofcourse, and its for an all black car with OEM Z06s...

I would chose A. If it was up to me I would go with a accent color such as red/red orange. It will definetly bring out your zo6 wheels. Just my .05 cents...it's worth more than .02 <img border="0" alt="[gruffy cottonball]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_gruffy.gif" />

The all black add's a clean cut look, I'm gonna be redoing mine in all black come spring. If you go with A, I say swap the colors around.

I also have eradispeed rotors. I couldnt find a pic handy of my actual car to photoshop, so this is someone elses <img border="0" title="" alt="[Embarrassed]" src="gr_emb.gif" />

I think I've decided on A. gonna try and polish the back part enough to match chrome decals that will go on the black area. should look <img border="0" title="" alt="[Cool]" src="gr_images/icons/cool.gif" /> , I'll also get some pics up whenever I finish.

thanks for voting!

Alex, go with A but paint the caliper red. I'm doing that to mine in the spring when it warms up.

all black is what i have on my car. w. stock 98 WS6 rims.

The brakes on these cars are nothing to show off. (imho)

I have even thought of upgrading to Corvette calipers, and would powdercoat them black as well.
