Hi guys

Im going to get my standard wheels on my yellow vrs refurbed and painted gloss black and whilst they are away i was going to change the colour of my brake calipers.

I was thinking of getting them done yellow as i think it would look nice and be a bit different and wondered what you guys think and has anyone else changed the colour of theres and if so could post some pictures up please

cheers

I reckon either yellow, purple or black on a yellow car.

Yellow would be good....

Check out your local Halfords store....

Some of the foliatec brake caliper paints are reduced but cant remember which colours...

Change from Skoda Green!!!!!

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!

I have thought about painting my calipers yellow too [my vrs is yellow]but i do think the green suits a yellow car very well.Give it a go mate

NO don't do it! :thumbdwn:

Skoda Green suits the car pefect and IMHO i think any other colour would ruin the overall look of the car!

I hate the fact Skoda changed the calipers to Red on there newer models.

Infact if i upgrade to a newer vRS i will be promptly repainting the calipers back to Green, how they should be!

Dont take the calipers off to paint them, lol.

I think Yellow would look nice behind the Gloss Black Wheels but i do have a soft spot for the Green.

Hello,

Just a passing thought, em, wonder what the overall effect would be ?

IF the wheels were painted Skoda green and the calipers painted yellow (that matched colour of car) certainly be a personal choice.

Anyone know exactly what name Skoda has for it's shade/s of green ??

The car badges seem dark, yet the racing team car green, looks very light in a different shade of green ??

Did anyone ever experiment with different colour calipers on a red vRS?

Yellow? Gold? Red?

Or just stick to green?

Change from Skoda Green!!!!!

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!

Green calipers are hideous.

I painted mine black when the wheels were silver, then red whan the wheels went anthracite.

I'd personally paint them silver or black. Think yellow will look a bit "Halfords", if you know what I'm saying?

Yeah, I'm a bit dubious about yellow, but it goes with red. Not sure about black or silver. I think red could look wrong on a red car, especially if it's mismatched.

Painted mine black as the green wasnt for me.

I don't think the green is that bad. I was just thinking of trying something else.

Not an Octy but I have black calipers
