What color calipers for malbec black
Whats up guys?

I need help deciding what color calipers to go with my malbec black coupe. Kind of tricky color combo IMO, black in certain angles purple in others. Red seems to be the safest choice for the black car but looks just OK when its purple.

Gold seems a bit more neutral and subtle, copper is also nice. @_@

Also when I do decide on a color, I'm not sure which variant to go with...

VHT Caliper lineup
-Real Red
-Gold
VHT Caliper Paint -- High Heat Coatings

VHT Engine Metallic lineup
-Fire Red
-Burnt Copper
-Gold Flake
VHT Engine Metallicâ„¢ -- High Heat Coating

Pics would be very helpful if you have a malbec black. thanks!

I have a satin black full exterior vinyl wrap and truly think that the best color calipers with any type of black is GOLD! I'd also choose the VHT caliper paint. Best of luck with your decision and keep us updated with what you end up doing!

Thanks man I really appreciate that
I wish I had an actual shine like the stock black infiniti paint but a paint job is ridiculously expensive so this will suffice

Everyone has burnt copper but it does go well with your color.

Any color will be nice with a dark color car but the suggested gold color is boss.

*droooool* ok ok so now its gonna be gold vs copper. Any suggestions on what color decal? Red seems nice, but that blue akebono with the red underline is pretty top notch!

I went with black. Malbec is a tough color because it looks different in different light lol. I think any color would look good.

Unless they make a malbec black decal I'd just stick with black, don't want too many colors fighting it out.
