Hi guys,
I am currently buying the Hoppers Stoppers brake upgrade for my XP Coupe.

I have been given the option of three colours of brake callipers.

RED
BLACK
SLIVER

What colour should I go with. The Car is bright Lime Green

Anything but red....

My (personal) choice is silver - but you gotta do what YOU like! May be worthwhile to ask about the option of powdercoating for extra price - may increase your colour choice......

Well i ended up going with silver after the some thought.

The other problem with red and black is they had PBR stamped on it. Which I did not like.

Now the fun begins. Installing the brake upgrade.

Gday mate, i dont want to hijack your thread but im from Werribee and i wasnt actually aware that Hoppers Stoppers did full brake upgrades. Do you know if they do them for AU's at all?

Oh and go with the Black calipers!

Red would look great with the lime green car. Silver and black sound crap. By silver I think you mean VT/ AU standard calipers. The blue ones form the GT would look good. I am trying to get a set for my GXL. They have not replied to my last 3 emails. I will have to find a converient time to phone them.
What are you doing for rears? I am getting mine painted Red and silver to match the fronts. If I ever GET the fronts. Let us know if you have any trouble fitting them.
