    Haha, umm out of the two very big choices you gave us the red would be the way to go :) . If I was you I would paint them silver with blue writing, but red would look good.

    if we were to paint TordeK's calipers? being a yellow zed, what colour would you all recommend too. I think yellow/yellow would be overkill and yellow/red would remind me of macca's too much.. any suggestions?

    black/silver, silver/black or a orange-yellow/silver silver/orange-yellow.

    No matter what color scheme your car is silver looks great, but hey whatever floats your boat :p

    Thanks all, leaning towards red, might photoshop and see both :)

    As for blue, i don't think it will work that well with navy, also because it is a small area compared to the rest of the car a little contrast will go well.

    Yellow might be a bit piss weak...

    Looks like i am photoshoping at work tomoz :D

    Go for red

    While I agree with artin that blue with silver writing looks awesome, as seen on mine here: :D :D :D

    I agree with you that it wouldn't suit navy blue (I presume it's TH1 Midnight Blue, not a respray from your pic). Can't say I like the idea of yellow with the blue, red would be the best colour for your car, as it needs to be bright to stand out, but not look too wanky/riced. :D

    Hmmmm, I don't see Brembo Goldline Colour

    But that would be my choice. Brembo Goldline Colour with the Nissan logo in Red.

    ZXxx Getting Stiggy wid it!

    Haha, uncertainaardvark is pulling out some gold at the moment!

    On a midnight blue zed I reckon the gold option is the best. Its more subtle than yellow and not as over the top flashy as red. I mean they are great colours and I think red looks hawt on joshes with the marble, but gold would suit a car that's going more for class.

    Agreed my Canadian mate...

    cant believe no one said gold.
    Gold is classy !
    If you don't go gold...stick with the red.
    Or you could always go the same as what the yard down the road did----dayglo orange. Certainly stands out on a crowd.=!:D

    Mmm i was thinking gold, but with navy + silver theme, might be too close.

    Dayglo Orange aye? in other words "Pimp My Ride Tangerine"? :p
