    I got rid of red when I got the 4 pots and glad I did to be honest. They looked a bit chavvy on my car.

    Just black all round now.

    Gotta be silver for me, just makes them look nice and fresh/ new:



    Red etc can look chavy/tacky/cheap IMO.

    Cheers for all the comments, I settled for Hammerite satin black on the disc centres and outer edges, and rear backing plates, I think I'll be doing the same on the calipers tomorrow

    It depends more on the vanes inside the disc, not the grooves on the outside.
