Default bigger rear rotors

My vote is the color of the calipers means nothing but Wayne O's silly-looking dinkster rear rotors look bad, like mine did until I went with the Baer 14"ers in back.

CRM with silver letters with black mounting brackets. I have a Montery Red car I did my calipers Montery Red with Silver letter with Montery Red barackets. If I did it again I would of did the brackets black instead. Good luck

CRM is one of those colors that doesn't match with everything and clashes with some!I'll be doing mine in either black,CRM or comp gray to match the wheels and hood.

I would go with black or CRM.... BTW, why paint them when you can have them powder coated for about $300

CRM or silver. Black isn't a color, it is a lack of color. Blue look like you found something off a car in the junk yard, just like having a blue door on an otherwise CRM body.
