I debated whether to put this in off-topic or Supra chat, but the wheels and brakes are Supra, so...

 

Next job on the Soarer is to fit the "UK" Supra brakes, but what colour do I go for?

 

I can only come up with black to hide them or red to show them off. :) Looking at the pics, though, I think I'm favouring red to break up the black.

 

Any suggestions or examples welcome.

Thanks amigos. A few interesting suggestions there.

 

Kawasaki green is a maybe.

Not sure about yellow with a white car, may have to do some Googling.

Orange? Possibly...

Red is always the fallback position. it's probably common for a reason

 

 

I think I've decided that some colour is needed, so black is out.

I think blue would need to be really bright.

Don't think I like white calipers.

 

Looks like I have a shortlist.

 

 

 

 

 

Blue for me. And nice pair. :)

The auto really needs to go, Craig. Too many cars (and bikes!). Then I have to decide what to do about the Aristo - try to repair the expletive deleted master cylinder or do a transplant into a GS.

What's wrong with it? Accumulator or something else?
