Hi everyone,

I have a red 2002 Mini Cooper. It has a white roof as well as the white alloys and white mirrors. I think the brake calipers are currently yellow but can hardly tell now as they're looking a bit tatty. I'm eager to get them looking nice again! I'm just wondering what colour will look best on my car? What do you think?

Thanks!

Red would look good, IMHO, matching the red/white colour scheme of the car.
A nice glossy black also looks good too.
I wouldn't try to go lighter in colour as it'll be a real pain, going darker is much easier!

Thanks for that tip! I think black would be a really good call- one colour that hadn't even crossed my mind until you suggested it- thank you!
