i have to admit.... i was thinking black may have looked better on the rear

fronts look good but i have to say brake drums look pants painted. your just drawing attention to the fact that you have poo rear brakes, and quite possible a small engine :oops:

i wish i had a pic of a focus iv seen with bright blue drums and calipers. :lol: its sky high, and hes part of a car group called "the untouchables" rofl

the red looks agressive,gives you a plus of 200 hp :lol:

no,seriously black would look better,red is an attitude for "fast",and drum brakes aren´t the brakes wich comes with a fast car.

mine are matt-black ;)

sure mate,it was wort trying :-)

for some reason i get this feeling that people dont like red break drums. cant put my finger on why tho?

did my rear drums dark green, dont like people painting rear drums...jut makes them stand out that u have drums lol

every boi racer and his <insert car> have painted shit breakes.

brembo are usually red(?) which they think by painting their bits red, will make people think they have uber stoppers.

bit like putting a g40 badge on your 1liter when its not a g40

watch this space..

i will have black rears again in no time

Painted drums are tacky, but the red front calipers look alright.

You did it because you liked it and wanted to. Why change because some people on here don't like it?

cos he himself realises now it looks wak!

black drums, black front calipers.

subtle is always best imo.

oh and title "cheap mod", youre right with the 1st word, does look cheap.

Because of peer pressure maybe?

its a bit harsh that you think hes a feeble nerd dude. for all you know hes a 6 ft bruiser who if you said to him well actually that looks shit he'd be like no its good or else. alot of you are all to quick to asume people are just trying to fit in and be popular when probably he just thought...actually you are right....it does look gay and i dnt want to atract attention to my drum brakes!

Was that aimed at me?

WHY DO U CAREEEEEEEEE

Yours were painted red at some point :ninja::-p

WHY DO U CAREEEEEEEEE

I don't.

I was merely implying that just because some people behind a computer disprove of it then he feels he has to change it. Taste is subjective, some people on here believe it to be objective.

And to TFG I wasn't inferring he was feeble one bit. Peer pressure isn't just about an ingroup vs outgroup... Ever been egged on to do something, down a dirty pint or something like that? That's peer pressure...
