So many people have been asking about painting thier calipers. I have seen yellow calipers on a green and a titanium, but not on a black....so here goes...

 

a few more...

 

very nice

 

I like :D

 

not my style at all

 

Me likes alot! :D

 

In the first photo what is that zip tie holding up?

 

I had one piece of the caliper tied back, but I did remove it...wait a minute...ummm...yes...I removed it... :D

 

Tiggerlee, I see from your sig, that you have a black with gold accents, sounds nice, any pics?

 

Actually having pictures taken next week by a photographer friend of mine.
Can't get my digi cam to work with my pc for some reason.
I've only seen one other 8 with the gold accents and it was white. The dealer had an
additional sticker on mine when I bought it saying that the gold accents are a special add-on. They wanted an additional $500 for them but I was able to negotiate with them to add them on for free. Even the centers on the rims have gold Mazda emblems on them. I love them! I get just as many compliments about the gold as I do about my 8.
I'll post some pics as soon as I get them done.

 

Finally, some yellow calipers. I have begged so many people to do that!!

Looks good man, I like it.

 

Yeah looks very nice!! :D

 

Can't tell if I like it or not... I think its somethign that would grow on me though... Thanks for sharing your pics.

 

Looks good-nice work.

 

i like it. good color mix.

 

alright... seriously... where can i get one of those window clings?! i want one REALLY REALLY BADLY

by the way i think it looks really nice.

 

Polak Graphics in the vendor forum.

 

thnx

 

wow.... there is even a yellow sticker to match the yellow calipers :D

 

question: black 8, red calipers, brown black interior.. how would that look? Would the red clash with the interior?


MrJynx

 

I think red would look fine, I just did mine a different colors because everyone and thier mother has red calipers. You might want to consider gold or black calipers...I've seen both here and they look pretty good too...

 

it' looks really good. Nice job !

 

I want to thank all for thier input, both positive and negative, I really do appreciate it. I knew not everyone would like yellow calipers but hey, that's what make each of us different, otherwise we'd all be driving honda's.

I think because of the color contrast, it actually makes my black look a deeper darker black and the yellow in the brakes catch the eye better then black or silver would have. I'm trying to keep the car to no more then 2 or 3 colors, otherwise you start looking like one of those beaters with a different color for each panel.

Again, thanks all...

Now, just need to tint and get some black rims... :D

 

Or just powder coat yours Black


Yellow Calipers Rule !!
