good point might have to see what kind of blue they have. I am not sure I will go with blue it would have to be close to the color and I can't tell from the blues they show if it is close. Might go with yellow. Thanks Steve NOW I can't make up my mind which color I want. Not sure about the blue not matching. Red might be the way to go? Yellow will it look right?? Black I think is out??

Red calipers on a Yellow car with Blue stripes? Do you dress yourself before leaving the house.

if "painting" go with the G2. But are you talking about "powdercoating", you may want to look around. Several good powdercoaters here in Indy.

Who is Steve?


RED - like Hank said, too many BRIGHT offsetting colors
BLACK - would look good but also wont stand out. Will actually stand out less than stock.
YELLOW - You'd have to match rally yellow otherwise it will clash and its VERY close the the yellow so you'll notice a difference. Plus, hard to keep clean.
BLUE - I voted for blue becasuse it will tie it together. Keep in mind with the blue, you need to get close. The stripes and calipers are far enought away, a slight variation would go unnoticed. SLIGHT variation.

I painted mine with high heat engine enamel. I went with a simple over the counter color thoough. Not sure if he could match his stripes. He could have them professionally painted or powder coated and they could probably match about anything....

If you guys are at mod day, check out mine. Painted by yours truely, cost me total about $25... and time!

That was done 1.5 years ago, they were Black last time I was there replacing my grill. They are Black with grey "BREMBO" lettering.

Need to speak to Ms. Missy on that other one. LOL

Sorry, thought your memory issues were back again. You must be back on the Meds.

Looks great - although IOM would complement that fire in your engine compartment!

Danny: G2 will custom match colors for $99 (they just ask for a paint code and the vehicle info). I don't know if your blue was a production color?

Mike the Powdercoater here powdercoats them ($250 non Brembos, $300 Brembos). But you have to remove and ship them to him: http://www.camaro5.com/forums/showthread.php?t=64503

I think I will go with black even though I said it was out the blue was a special mix by MPD1 so I don't think I want to mess with trying to get that right. Plus the black would be cheaper.
