  • what color should I paint my calipers

      isnt stock silver?

      mine look silver-ish now, and they dont really stand out. (although they are kinda dirty)

          </font>[/QUOTE]well stock are metal colored but it seems like you want the calipers to stand out a lil. i think kristens are red with black lettering and they look pretty good, but are a lil too bold for my taste. for sure you cant go wrong with black or silver, very subtle and clean looking. but blue, silver, white, red, and black would all look alright. it really depends are your tastes-also any future appearance mods you may do.
