my boyfriend thinks it will be ugly, but im thinking it might look nice, and add a unique girly touch.

i just wanted some opinions

Just hoping it does not fade too quickly ovwer continual wear and tear but good to hear Original creativity flow.

honestly im with your boyfriend on this, it will look grossly out of place and most likely quite ugly

um, did you not see R2P's? It's pimped out in pink....

If you do it right, it will look nice. I still say go with black rims.

and look at his headlights.... see how the rings for the lights are pink. That would look awesome on your car. Black and pink headlights like that. If you can, pink AE's.... lol

Actually, for a female's car, pink calipers would work on a silver car. They would contrast the silver and accent it. You guys need to have more of an open mind.

I say go for it! That will definitely make it unique, and those personalized accents are what make it your own!

thanks stimpy... thats what i was thinking, and for the record blueeyes, purple calipers would be dumb... it would have to be like neon purple for them event to show up anyways and that would look horrible

yeah, i was thinking that too... pink and silver? A black tib with pink calipers would be pretty sweet for a chick. Just whatever you do, make sure you use a good quality caliper paint. It will resist fading and some of them can be sprayed off easily to clean.




and R2P.... lol, your car still looks so freaking good, even pink....

Though, silver tib with black accents, such as headlights, gas cap/ring (either one, the other, or both), tinted windows, maybe black door handles, and black rims with pink calipers would be sweet. Of course, now you need pink highlights in other areas of the car...

maybe black door handle surround with pink handles? pink gas ring?

black rims with a pink lip? lol

basically, I'm thinking of anything I'd do in red on a silver and black themed tib and replacing that with pink.... lol

This guy local to me owns a gunmetal MR2. He went with a pink theme. It actually looks damn good! His rotors are like a purplish pink, car looks hot!

Wow! Thing looks hot! I agree, pink calipers would look awesome for a girls tib! Should really stand out against the silver.
