Brake color behind gold GTA's
So I had my plan set and an opportunity came up I couldn't pass up. Original plan was red z06 brakes with either C5 or snyper 5 spokes.
Then I find the ad for the Epsilon 3-piece rims in the classifieds. I'll be damn if they aren't the closest thing to a GTA rims I've ever seen (a lot better than the BBS ones). And they're 17x9.5 too!
Bad news is the centers are red, but the 3-piece lets me repaint them easy.
Anyway, even though all my other suspension pieces are red and match the car well, I'm thinking red behind gold isn't going to be the best combo. Anyone have any pictures of painted caliper's/brakes behind gold GTA's? I'm leaning towards a low gloss silver or perhaps polished to match the polished lip?
Should be here next week.
