Look for a previous thread" yellow w/ yellow calipers. Joe Lanser powder coated his yellow w/ the S2000 logo. looks real sharp. Joe does the powder coating for Rick Hesel. He did mine which was white on white w/ red S2000 logo and it looks awesome. For him to do the logo contact Rick to make arrangements.

I painted mine metallic silver. They look sharp with the wheels. I didn't go yellow because of two reasons....the caliper paint you can buy does not match, and yellow calipers would get incredibly dirty really quickly..especially with my Porterfield pads.

I had the calipers gloss black previously, but they didn't stand out at all. Red is ok, but IMHO, it might look a little too much like McDonalds. Then again...who am I to talk about flash....I've got a GT wing on my car

Paint them whatever color you like!!!!
