Wrapping calipers - Orange vs. Lemon Yellow
Hello CL community,
I intend to wrap my calipers soon. I have been debating between orange and lemon yellow. What are your thoughts? Which color looks better with Nebula Gray Pearl? Does anyone have pictures?
Thanks for your input. Picture of my car attached

Aren't the factory GS-F orange? That would be unique for an IS. I vote orange.

Lexus caliper orange would be my choice with a black f-sport logo on them.

Just curious. How much are you getting your calipers wrapped for?
I've gotten quotes from $300 to $600.

Neither one! I am doing it myself with the help of my father & neighbor! That should be enough!

Ouuu very nice. Instead of wraps, I'm planning to just paint it myself since these shops want to rob me.
Pics and How-Tos after your done would be nice!

That's the way I was going with the Orange & Black F-Sport decals on it
I also like the lemon yellow though!
