I am going for Orange but can't decide which one. These are the two I am debating. Help me out fellas on what would stand out a little more and still look cleaner with brake dust (if thats even possible).

Yah, I am having a hard time deciding. I think the BMW fire orange will be brighter but the pearl in the lambo orange is nice but will be darker. I am just not sure if the pearl would be noticeable on a calliper even tho its a pretty big calliper. If its noticeable I would do lambo orange.

That color is SICK !!!!!
PS: I didnt think there was a difference but both look great. I would advice you to go for the brighter shade only because there would be brake dust sticking on the calipercovers making them look darker (if you know what I mean)
Wish I had money for a BBK

True, this is the reason I think I am going for the BMW fire orange cause it would look so bad with brake dust where the lambo orange will look more bronze as its a little darker. The lambo looks a lot better on bigger surfaces where the sun or light would shine but I don't think the pearl would be very noticeable on callipers.

Hard to believe there's going to be much difference once they're inside the wheels, out of the sun, and covered by brake dust. They both should look great though.

Exactly what I was thinking so I went with BMW FIre Oranage as it was a little brighter and figured that the calipers will stiill look more orange with a little brake dust. Here's a pic of the rear wheel in normal light.
