Hi all

I would appreciate your opinions on the above topic please if you have the time. Ive had my brakes on now for about 1000 miles and am happy with the way they perform.....but im considering changing the way they appear through the wheel.

I currently have gold anodised disc bells ( piccy below ) and im not sure they go well with the red.....so im stuck between leaving them gold or doing them one of the following colours over the winter months....

1. Red (body colour with the nuts polished up)
2. Wheel silver ( but would i lose the bells in the wheel with there being too much silver????)
3. Black ( Gloss or satin with the nuts polished up )
4. Left alone
5. Chromed ( would this look too much with the black APs?????)

In the brackets above are my thought on each option but its your opinions I value massively guys as you know what will look good and will quite frankly not!!!!!.

Many thanks for your time.

i think red would go with yr car better than gold,you would have to do the writing on the calipers red aswell though
ive got chrome/polished on mine and it does look nice but you cant clean and polish them properly with the wheels on so im forever taking the wheels off every 5 minutes!!

looks good though...

 

Thanks for that.....dont fancy touching the calipers though as like the yellow AP wording against the black calipers. Youre ok though as you have chrome bells and chrome calipers....lucky sod!!!

 

lol..........

 

Leave them as they are mate Other wise go black

 

hhhhhmmm think i can rule the red out looking at the photoshop piccy!!!

thanks MADRST and L3 COS

 

I know you guys like your bling but I had mine hard annodised

 

Mine are just anodised silver, I think they look fine, Pauls look very nice in the pic above too

 

I'd go for silver or black I've had gold bells before and i never really liked them

 

Talking of bling Paul.......Your shock absorbers are a bit bright!!!

 

matcos: could you put up a pic of your setup for me please?

im swaying towards wheel silver with polished bolts.

 

I'm surprised he hasnt had them powder coated black yet... Or maybe even the black crackle

 

'cos they are still new in that pic

 

LOL at paul ripley.....take it theyre not like that now then???

Im going to do them silver and polish all the nuts up....is the gold anodising thats on them easy to get off? or can i rub them down and paint and lacquer straight over it???

Many thanks for your posts on this guys

 

shouldnt bother painting them,the heat will kill it

 

ap says it all you dont need no fancy colurs
