From blue to red calipers?

[exm]

Got a 2026 Adriatic Blue. Thinking about changing the calipers from blue to red. The blue kind of looks “off” with this color and the red pops more. Here are some pictures from the DH SC.

Your thoughts?

I agree with you, blue looks "off". I like the red better. Or maybe a different color not sure what though.

Silver is always a good option, considering you have black wheels framing the calipers.

Red is the best color to go with Adriatic Blue. Black is fine. The blue caliper covers do not complement Adriatic Blue at all, in my opinion.

My 2024 has the red BREMBOS with Bronze Wheels...
The Red gives the car a nice splash of color with your color!

I've always preferred red calipers. It's kind of traditional, and goes with a lot of colours.

I don’t like either, personally, with that paint colour. If it was my car I’d go black. But I like subtle and understated.

Black?

Another question, if I would go red, what are your opinions about also powercoating the parking brake, like this one:

Yes I like that look with both painted. Wish mine had both painted from factory, as a mater of fact I thought that very thing when I saw they weren't both painted.

I will order and have the Red Brembo’s installed when it‘s time for the 4 wheel Brake job. Whoever ordered the one that I ended up buying didn’t have them or the Magnaride Suspension but I wanted it so I lived without but ain’t mad about it.

Not to my taste. Makes it look cluttered.

Silver, or I'd try to get something closer to the body color than the blue. Good luck!

I agree. That car color is nice but unusual. The blue & red don’t complement it. Actually clash. I’d go with matching body color.
