I am going to paint my calipers on ym car and was wondering what color you guys would suggest. My car is red. I was thinking either the same kind of red or a black to match the tint and the rear blackouts. Any opinions?

What color for calipers

I too am a bright red owner :D (the few, the proud, the brave)
Anyhow, I'd think red would look best. Its difficult to color match the calipers... Black would simply hide them - if thats the look youre going for then go ahead!
I would try to not paint the backsides of the brake pads though [img]smile.gif[/img] Viel Gluck!2002 5-spd NBM Camaro

I am also in that color choosing mode for caliper paint. I have a silver 97, and i would like to paint them silver also, but i think they would get too dirty too quick and would look like *** . So i am probably going to paint them black. I painted my drums black and it looks nice. Silver and black seem to play well together. :D231 (3.8L to those of you who don\'t like cubic inches) Silver Camaro<br />80 series flowmaster<br />k&n air filter<p>\"if it is good enough for the general, then it is good enough for me\"

Ive got a 98 firebird and its red and I have all 4 of my calipers painted red. Only bad thing is they get dirty quick, but i heard they make a high temp clear coat.<a href=\"http://www.cardomain.com/id/1998firebird\" target=\"_blank\">Red 1998 Firebird</a>
