The blue vantage loaned to me had yellow callipers with 'Aston Martin ' on them but in light grey or silver. So unless you are very close you can't see it!

The lettering is in black on my callipers and is quite visible when cleaned up or as now, a bit grubby.

Have have Red ones with Black writing. You can make out the wording when the wheels were silver and again now that they are Anthracite.

If you want real class, you could do what my car's first owner did.

Order silver calipers, presumably at enormous cost, then they are so discrete that you don't notice them. Very slightly different from the standard grey, so they are an exact match for the wheels.

Oh, and the silver calipers have ASTON MARTIN in black.
