Pic request/opinions on caliper color

[Mackshackm3]

Working on doing the 380/370mm F8x brake swap and trying to decide on caliper color…..my car is a silver gray with csl 19”s…..if anyone could share their various caliper paint colors on a silver gray e46 it would be greatly appreciated……top 3 right now are black, burnt bronze/copper and leaving them f8x blue. All with the color M/// sticker.

thanks!!!

No love for yellow? (not mine)

I have phoenix yellow.

Black for a tracked car, and any carnival color for hard parking.

I actually love yellow on gray…..a buddy has a trackhawk dark gray with yellow brembos. I’m just going for a more “subtle” less “aftermarkety” look of the m3

Yellow is best on SG, then red. Blue looks great too, and is more subtle

It was just the first image that came up on google images, but it looks like it was from a post back in 2021: https://www.facebook.com/dreamcargiv...1313685666981/

I forget the exact paint code but I can get it if anyone cares. I did this on my X5M, and am in the process of doing the M3 the same color.

Prismatic polished silver for reference

Rock the stock blue color if it's in good condition. The exterior is already a neutral color.
