no actually it doesn't cuz it says "Sorry - no matches. Please try some different terms." umm...I used the search and I didn't find anything that was what I was looking for, I found other color and car suggestions but not an NBM T/A...so I'm still looking for opinions, sorry to put you out guys.

Red looks good...seen it done on NBM as well as chrome and of course black. Red would be my choice for your color of car.

Searches are only saved for so long, then no longer valid.

I searched 'caliper color' & found a 1/2 dozen recent threads.

But anyway, What are your current color combinations?
Any current highlights colors on the emblems or elsewhere?
Duplicate it. Don't mix too many colors.

no, as of right now I don't have any highlight or accent colors, but in the near future I am thinking of going w/ a gun metal or charcoal type accent color.
