original wheel nuts had a few specs of rust on the so i got these blue ones in keeping up with the blue bits under the bonnet and blue writing on the wheels, not sure about calipers now tho. Think i should repaint them either all red? All blue? or Paint the black caliper bracket blue?

i think it looks quite nice with the variety of colours.

not keen on blue calipers (black or red are best imo)

Blue on a blue car is alright but not on a silver car and hopefully the pink calipers were at least owned by a girl :lol:

i seen a scoob with pink calipers as well...mmm,anyway thing is i dont like a multitude of colours just prefere to keep it simple and smart. Didnt subaru 4pots come in blue? ive seen plenty with blue calipers and they looked ok but then again blue and red go together ok in small areas. To many choices is a burden :blink:
