Orange callipers?

Dilemma

Once again I'm thinking of throwing caution to the wind and getting callipers refreshed. The logo has faded and a couple of marks are present.

So question

I have my steering wheel etc with orange stitching. It just sits nicely with midnight blue and lifts things in my view. So outside should I stick with the theme and have orange callipers and S badge? I'm thinking of have a Porsche classic graphic in orange down the sides so it would bring it all together. However, I'm hesitating because I'm not sure if it would buyers off. (If I do this I may put orange seatbelts on the to do list as well.)

Thoughts appreciated as always
 
If it's a keeper then definitely yes, do it. I'm all for making the cars are own.

If selling in a few years then probably not.
 
Go for it, easy enough to change if you change your mind.

THAT LOOKS ACE.

Right sorted. Going to get them done.
 
Not a 911 but you get the jist from my 944, orange calipers and decals, it's reversible if I ever get to selling it and it definitely lifts the dark blue look of the original paint.

Go for it , easily reversable if you want to change to sell in the future

Why shouldn't you? I have red calipers and I got the side stripe with the Porsche script in red to match, which works for me.
 
I've just done exactly this on my R53 Mini Cooper S. Started off getting the seat belts re-webbed in bright orange, then painted the wheel calipers orange and then repainted the wing mirrors & interior door handles orange. Now debating to do the wheels or not. The cars black, so I think orange wheels will set it off nicely & not be too much.

All good fun!
