[Jack]

If you want to hide the fact (or rather 'not draw attention to') you have drums then black...

[Timmy]

black's boring though don't really stand out im being fussy i know
i was think astra blue

Paint your drums and calipers silver.

Revotec Pro discs... its the only way to go in my opinion.

Like Jack said though, black if you wanna paint them to hide them.

[Philsutton]

you could always buy new drums and laquer them for that shiney effect

I painted my drums blue, but now i don't like them so there going to be painted silver or black

[Timmy]

i painted them sliver well my new set sliver i manged to magle the thread on old set just need to fit then can be a pain in the ars job so going to give it a go soon. will do front calpers same colour but that will wait

[Chris]

my front ones are black (standard for wilwoods) and rears are rusty :lol:

[jbowman]

I would do them in Gold with redstuff pads up front!!
jus wire brush the calipers and drums then get a tin of hammerite gold!!

[cheshiresport]

I agree black, why would you want to draw attention to a set of drums?

[Nova_Tek]

Personally mate Black is the best to go for. Goes with all colours, doesnt look tacky and less dirt visible.

I did my calipers and drums in gloss black. Look very tidy.

But as always each to their own. Your choice :thumb:

Black, or leave them in an attractive shade called "Standard rust". Silver might be a bit OTT, esp if you got silver wheels, it will attract attention away from them.
