I have a stock red 95 NSX and want to paint the calipers. I have seen a few nsx's with red calipers - do you guys have any pics of other Red NSX's with other colors than red and black - maybe yellow or something else?

There are only few optimal color combos IMO. Gold is another option besides red or black. Anyone tired brown, pink, white, or limegreen? Show them up! :D

27th street with the Newport Beach Pier in the background. 1 block from the office =-)
 
I'm about to buy a paint kit to paint my calipers. What do you guys do for painting the letters? You buy another kit just for a few drops of paint for the letters? :eek: Suggestion please!

Buy a paint pen from a hobby store.
 
Have any of you guys considered caliper covers I sell them if anyone is interested in them...They are made of aluminum and come powder coated in Red,Black,Yellow,Silver and real Carbon Fiber not only are the more attractive(IMO) less time consuming than the paint process.No masking tape,No can shaking no mess.They can also be removed and used on another car if the calipers are simular in size and they dont retain any additional heat. If someone can tell me how to load pic's I can show them to you.
 
Nice-just what we needed; another thread on painted calipers! Lets start another one on Snap Ring transmissions:tongue:
