Yellow or Red Calipers... and some Garage pics

I am pretty set on upgrading my brakes and rotors with the Stoptech Big brake kit. However CoreyNJ said something that made me start thinking.... Do I really want Red Calipers? Or should I keep the whole Yellow and Black thing going. I have always loved the Red calipers, the Red pops off the Black but the Yellow does too. I have a set of finished Yellow Calipers that are going to another member, So bolted them on just to see what it would look like. So what do you guys think? Please participate in my poll... Also here are some recent garage pics... I washed the floor today so I thought I would share.

You washed your garage floor...I would have never noticed...because every time I see it it looks spotless and awesome. The yellow would look better IMO, since everything else is yellow or black (black might be cool though). BTW...Your garage is nicer than my office. I suppose you did it yourself?

Thanks for the quick reply... Yellow is looking pretty damn good. The garage the floor was filthy after the PSS9 install and changing the sways. I sprayed a little liquid degreaser to break down the grime. Then I washed the floors with our Wet/Dry hardwood vacuum that worked out great. Finished the job by doing some Race Deck skating with towels as skates. The Garage was basically a brick shell when I started with a dumpster worth of old wood planks, doors, screens etc. After all it had 75 years worth of stored goods. It's insulated with propane heat. I have used the heater a dozen times this winter. 20-30 minutes you can be working in a T-shirt and shorts. Thanks for the compliment I will have to have you over sometime.

YELLOW!!With your P coloring red would not be right...I would put black porsche decals on the yellow brakes...just my 2 cents...and man is your garage the best looking I have EVER seen..you must spend more time in there than in your house!

Yellow!! BTW: I still say the Black GT3 would look better in the garage (hehehehe) And yes you DID drool on it.

I voted RED. As good as the yellow looks, and I LOVE the yellow calipers, I think you need a color other than yellow behind the blavck wheels. The black is a "non-color," the background, and you need something that really POPS. I think red would do this. The pic below is Signal Yellow (which has a little more orange in it than Speed Yellow) with red calipers. Unfortunately, not black wheels. I think you need the contrasting color to maximize the whole package. Just my opinion.

I don't know. But the whole Red and Yellow thing kinda reminds me of the Golden Arches

do you track your car a lot? if not, pass on the stoptech. the only advantage of the stoptechs is that they handle heat better because of the bigger rotor. stoptech purposefully downsize the caliper's pistons to replicate the brake bias and clamping force of oem. the clamping force may be a little more but not much. any more and ABS would freak out causing longer stopping distances. if it's for bling.. well... i am never against going for BLING oh ya, go for yellow ONLY if it is an exact speed yellow match.

The yellow or red will work. The red will stand out more.

I think that the red looks good when your rims are not black.....I also think your sidemarkers should be white and not amber! but because of the yellow color they kind of blend in! still think you should keep them yellow!!!

What ever happened to silver as an option? :-( But really. For your car I would go with red to brake up the colors a bit!

Yellow, to be consistent. Great job!

Simply awesome! Have you seen Andy from Atlanta's garage? Both of you make me ill.

Great looking garage! How do you keep it clean? I vote for Red, as you have too many yellow accents on the car now. Red will draw the eye to the wheels and brakes. and add depth to the somewhat boring looking NASCAR wheels. The car's color will immediately get attention, but from there, the more accents on things like brakes etc. will draw the eye around the car. You might consider those carbon fiber rear view mirror covers to accent the A pillar area of the car.

Ditto on the garage commets, are you using Race Deck tiles? I voted for red as well the reason being is the contrast against the black is just enough. The yellow is already the primary color, accent the car completely with a touch of red.

NICE!!! Yes on the red calipers. Yellow calipers only look good on dark colored cars IMHO. I might have added red seat belts too. The GT3 seats with yellow backs is very sharp! Maybe paint the seat belt guides silver? I saw a Club Sport in the GT3 forum with that mod. btw, your garage cabinetry is really nice who makes it? RUF's Blue version

On your car without a doubt YELLOW. You seem to have a theme going so why not stick with it.

Thanks guys keep the comments coming... I am leaning toward the Yellow the more I look at them. Seat Belts are Yellow now. They came optioned with the car. I prefer Red Seat belts especially if I did the Calipers in Red. However the Yellow theme might stick. Tiles are made by Snaplock (RaceDeck) for Costco (Motofloor) I purchased it when it was on sale for about $1.75 Sqft hence the Black, white and grey the only colors it comes in. I love the flooring! White gets dirty however cleaning them is a peice of cake. Cabinets are from Sears (StackOn) they are well made and quite reasonable. Especially when looking at Gladiator or others. I am 100% satisfied with the choice.

I think red generally looks better with silver alloy wheels, but yellow works better with black wheels. It depends on your approach, I suppose. With your speed yellow, red will be an accent color, whereas yellow will tie in better with the overall theme. Yellow with black lettering would be my vote.

Go with RED. Yellow calipers on a yellow car doesn't look right to me. The red calipers gives it a nice accent... to my taste.

Red. Would be a nice accent to your yellow p-car and black wheels. You really set the bar high with your garage! Okay, so now I'm inspired to get my garage all sorted out before my C4S gets here.

Red on the left, yellow on the right. But not the other way around. That would be just plain tacky.

Red, for sure. Black, in fact, would look better than yellow- much better. You have so much yellow already, that yellow brakes make your car look like a toy or something, and it looks like you are taking the modding thing way too far. The "hey everyone, look at me" look is kinda cool sometimes, but it usually ends up looking just way over the top.

Dude his car is yellow! You don't buy a yellow Porsche to be subtle! RUF orange (now that we have yellow and blue) p.s. here's yellow with the painted GT3 seat belt guides

Hum this is hard, I LOVE red calipers but I honestly think yellow would be better on your car, I think what ever you do make sure the decals are black...

I voted for red . You don't have accent colors: yellow is the theme color and black is a "non-color". Add a subtle touch of red, somewhat hidden in the black of the wheels, and the yellow will pop at you even more. Actually, I think that it will even make the black of the wheels more of a color than it currently is. My own .02! OMG, that garage! To die for!

I'd say, in my unknowledgeable opinion, that a little splash of red may just do the trick......
