Hey can anyone add some red to the drum on the rear? When I do my breaks I am thinking about painting the calipers red, but want to see if doing the drums red is going to look ridiculous. This is about the best pic I have with the new wheels where you can see the drum.

TIA!

Here is one of the front too, maybe slap some red on the caliper so I can get an idea.

Red on the Caliper and it's Mount will Look Good, I had my Brake Drums Powdercoated in a High Luster Silver with a Clear Coat, made a Great accent to my Polished Rims...

Red on the Drum might be a bit too much, unless you had it done in the same color as the Truck in High Temp Urethane Enamel...

quick caliper. the red is off a little but you get the idea. it might look good but jus make sure to prep very well and use high heat paint.

for the back i just painted my drums black with high heat paint. they look amazing and the paint hasnt flaked off at all. the red drums might look ricey. you might want to go black drums with the red calipers. its up to you.
