Need help with caliper color?

[NicksGTR]

I'm looking to purchase a 2021 in grabber yellow. It will have all black wheels. Should I match the grabber yellow on the calipers? Suggestions and pics welcome.

Depend… if you want the best braking possible, you have to paint them red…it’s a well known fact that red calipers brake better

Good to know about the color match.

Lot of bs and self-serving stuff in that link
Obviously brembo will prefer you to buy their stuff
Calipers and more generally a braking system is pretty simple
And changing calipers, mc and pads is not difficult if you know and understand how a braking system works
For example: want a softer , longer stroke. Use a mc with a smaller bore
Want a firmer and shorter stroke, use an mc with a bigger bore
Anyhow, pretty biased (obviously) article

Powder coat offers a myriad of colors. I had mine done several years ago and they still look great. Yellow calipers with black BREMBO would look great. Options might be limited because the heat proof Brembo letters only come in red, black and white that I've found. Here's a picture of my car. Good luck.

I would choose grabber blue calipers on a yellow car.
