This is one of those mods where you get an idea, think about it, you're not sure if you'll like it, you try previewing it in Photoshop, you're still not sure, you're scared you'll mess up your MINI, you know that once you start there is no turning back, so you waver back and forth, you stare at your MINI and try to imagine what it will look like, you're less sure than ever...

Then one day you just do it.

I STILL don't know if I like it. The idea was to match the calipers to the color of the side reflector. I mixed even parts of orange and yellow G2 caliper paint. (NOTE: The G2 orange caliper paint is nothing like the color shown on their site, it is very red).

I post it here in case someone else is thinking about it, isn't sure, is previewing it in Photoshop....

I like it!

 

perfect match! well done!

 

That is great, I have been trying to find a non chevy orange caliper paint for awhile now.

 

I like it. That's what I was trying to do but got lazy so I just stuck with the "chevy" stuff. It's pretty much red. So unoriginal, but adds some style to the Coop. I guess I don't have pictures with the calipers done...

 

Looks good. I'm doing red this weekend and spraying my rims black. We'll see if I like the color combo or not!

 

looks wonderful. and don´t worry. it´s always like that when making an aesthetic mod. it´s always "do i like it? really?"

 

You matched the paints really well! Looks nice !
If you want to see it through other people's eyes, trust me, I think it looks great !!

 

Did mine on Saturday and painted the rims too. See gallery or https://www.northamericanmotoring.co...1&postcount=40
