Reviews and questions about the entry-level MPC500

I was thinking of getting black, yellow, or red pads but now think the default grey ones look dope with this design. What do you guys think ? Give me some feedback...

just know that the styleflip will be no where near as bright as it looks on screen they actually print pretty dark

like dim your monitor and see if you still like it

I edited previous post & think greys actually look best. I dont think I would mess with the color of the buttons. I think it looks good the way it is. Thanks for the suggestions though. I'll take pics when I get it....

Nah, the grey's kill the look. White pads would be the best way. Or even black like BG said.

You can get both black and white pads and cut them up to mix the color coordination.
Like the first row black the second row white etc.

Whatever you do, just remember that leaving the grey pads is like pimpin' out your ride and leaving the wheels with stock Toyota rims.

Messed with some different pad colors in MS Paint. Tried to get them as close as I could to what they look like at MPCSTUFFDOTCOM. The Black pads on the site actually look grey. Online pics of them look pretty black though. What do you guys think ? Are they really solid black ? Or more of a dark grey ?

Link to MS Painted pads to give idea of different pad colors with Venom Style Flip. The MPC pics are at the bottom. Let me know what looks best.

They look reddish, greyish brown IMO.
Kind of a clay.

I dont know if you camera is off, but they look kinda cool in that picture.

But if your going with a venom theme, black pads has too much justification to choose anything less.

Oh yeah you can :D

On mpcstuff.com they got a pic of a 2500 with white and red pads.

That's what I'm after. Can you recommend any sites that have good, soft, sensitive pads? Found mpcstuff.com, but I don't know if the pads are more sensitive than stock.

Thanks.
