Default What color calipers?
I'm going with the Pewter black theme on my 01 ws6 and was wandering what color i should go for the calipers? Black or Red? and if black should i get lettering or no?

i was actually thinking of doing mine pewter, haven't seen those before and i always like to try new things. red calipers look great but they are a little played out imo.

I have red currently on my Pewter Z. Can't really go wrong with red. I am however about to change it to a shade of blue.

I think red would look best... It's a little played out, but the only reason it's so played out is because it looks so good.

black is a color that goes good with any other color, but red might look cool with the pewter.
