Question What color caliper / caliper decals needed

I search and found a couple threads but the links are old and the supply was limited. I also sent an email to a guy in Austrailia and it was returned.

I have a Blk GS430 and want to paint my calipers black or red, wich ones would go better with a black rim? black calipers with red decals or red calipers with black decals?

i will not do red calipers, so i will go black. and i probably won't put red stickers, don't really stand out, white or silver is good

Black and silver sounds good. Where can I get the decals from though? my search on here came up with old threads almost a year old.

I saw some stickers on ebay. Try searching Lexus calipers decals. I think I would go black calipers with silver or chrome stickers.

I just bought some over at IS300.net. I went with silver and I'm going to paint the calipers black. I almost went with yellow stickers but thought they might be hard to read, even against a black caliper.

yeah I totally agree! painting the stock caliper like red, blue, yellow to me is a little ricey...if you are going to keep stock caliper...i would say stick with silver or black...something conservative it looks much better....no sense to show off a stock part.
