Brake Calipers MK7

Firstly, hi all, I'm new to this forum! :)

I recently bought new alloys and had them fitted and since then I feel like making a lot more modifications to my fiesta to make it look and feel more sporty!

My car is hot magenta and I would like to get some brake calipers fitted which would go well with that colour.

Anyone have any colour suggestions?

Pic of my car attached.....although it's dark and not a very good angle....!

Thanks :)

    Hi MissNisa1990, welcome to the forums.

    Firstly nice wheels! I can see the calipers will be nicely on display when/if you get them done. I personally haven't got mine changed, but I am potentially interested in getting the stock ones painted. I'm under the impression this is a cost effective alternative to replacing them and quite a few places offer this.

    White or gold. Simple job to do the repaint yourself, Halfords sell brake cliper paint.

    gold would look gopping next to dark red , they completely clash as colours

    gloss black - end of.
