So I am about to get my rims powder coated, I had the gunmetal 20's and one of the rims got scratched.. anyway I need some ideas.. The car is white, I have the Akebono BBK and I want to powder coat them as well... Trying to figure out which color to go with and I dont want to go with red.. they are currently silver and I am thinking of either doing them in that dark charcoal that nissans version has or going with brembo gold.. Trying to see if anyone has bbk on a white car and what color combos look good.. having a hard time.. pics would be appreciated!

I would do the Brembo gold. Or some other bright color like bright green. Good thing is white goes with almost any color. Maybe even a light purple (since Infiniti uses it in their ads).

It will be hard to find someone with an M37/M56 that has painted calipers on a white M. Here's one to look at though.

Gold looks sharp... especially if you have a light colored car, and dark colored wheels... BUT it is the Brembo color... Some guys might think you are posing... so I'd do any other color honestly... black akebonos, with a white akebono decal would look really good i think.
