Re: Repainted my calipers!
cheers mate, I was originally going to go Sepang blue but decided that Orange was the way to go. The pics dont do them justice, when the light hits them right (like the first pic) they look amazing.

Orange looks tangfastic, stunning.
Re: Repainted my calipers!
cheers chaps, The old colour was called Nimbus grey, looks nice but imo blended in too well with the wheels and discs. The new colour is BMW Valencia orange, it is a bit pearl, but mainly mettalic.
I got the new chrome style decals from ebay on the link below. They have to be lacquered over, and need to be put onto a warm surface for best results.
