there's a lot more to it that just painting calipers on any car, in my opinion if its the right car with the right wheels it can look stunning

my bora was going to have red calipers done, black car, anthracite wheels, BUT i'm told the coilover kit i want is only available with blue springs which i'm sure will look odd  ::)

i'm not 100% sure Red will look good with nocturno blue though if i'm honest

Ahh bugger,I was thinking about it on mine but not so sure now :-?
