Hi all.

As most off you know, I have a Daytona B9 with the titanium 19" wheels on order.

What colour do you think would best compliment them?

Red with the S line decals?

My current calipers on my B8 are in the attached pic.

Personally I'd leave them factory finish until they start looking a bit tired.
 
Brakes out of the factory are never painted and look awful after around 2 weeks, so I'm looking at painting as soon as. I like red but don't know if it would be too much.

Black compliments the red of the car otherwise there's too much red, the sline decal has some in it anyway looking at the picture...
 
Oops, thought your post was the car, red then, much better with Grey...

Defo go for red, will look good against the paint and alloys

Just me. I quite like them yellow. They will stand out against the paint of your car

saw my first B9 close up today.
Do the Sline diesels(single exhaust) come with brembo's from the factory?

They are big, but I'm not sure about the pic as mine look even bigger than them! (Could just be the angle)
I've got the 19" and there is barely any gap between calipers and allloys. (Makes cleaning inside alloys a nightmare!)
Somebody has already posted on here that they are R8 calipers (same part number!)
 
That's a cracking caliper to come as standard.

Yep, been looking at that gap, on my a3 I can get my wheel brush in there but I doubt it will on the a4. Still there's always my wheel woolie http://www.theultimatefinish.co.uk/...eh_vK_j2XVgkLhPBY0rp3uUOiVHWwpEiJEaAj8O8P8HAQ
