I hear you on the red. Nothing wrong with it but it seems like it's all too common. I haven't done mine yet just because I don't know what color I want to do them in.
I was leaning towards yellow but then I found a pic of a LMB car with yellow and I didn't really like it.
I like the blue on the ZR1's but not sure how that would look with LMB.
Post up some pics if and when you do them.

Hum, I did mine red on Lemands blue. Black wheels and chrome wheels. Doesn't really flow that well. Going to be doing mine Leland's blue next week to match the body color. They really stand out with the z51 brake rotors. Here's red. Not the best pics... but..can't post pics, but these links are pics

Just a thought - how about a dark red (something like CRM) rather than a bright red? That's what I'm considering for my AW coupe (along w/gloss black).
Enjoy,

lol i think i am going to flip a coin between red and yellow. hopefully knock it out this weekend and lower the car on stock bolts.
Ill post pictures after i finish.
If anyone has pictures of LMB with yellow calipers, that would be a big help also.

Caliper color
Hi, I just did mine red, of course the car is Victory red. I also touched up my rotors with silver and painted the caliper brackets black. I also installed new pads while i was in there. I tried to post a picture but???? No luck.

If you wanna be unique paint them the same silver as your stripe and the "corvette" logo on the caliper the same blue as your car...would tie it all together
