opinion on caliper colour

[slayer]

Ok, so im fairly new here, but not that new.

ive had my car just over a year now, and my rusty calipers are looking pretty fugly now.

I upgrade my rotors last fall, and it just makes the calipers look worse by comparisin.

i have a couple thoughts and would like to know if anyone has done the same and has a pic to share (google images is not helping me as much as id like on this)

I have a 2003.5 Yellow MSP

my thoughts

Stock Silver
Gunmetal
Yellow
Red

Ive seen pics of the yellow and red, both look decent.

I have an old (new/unopened) can of red caliper paint, thats the only reason i even considered it but i can use it on another project this summer if needed.

Did i ramble? sorry typing this at work between shipments

Mine are green for some reason and it looks good with white wheels. Not sure where po got green though. Red is over rated and always done ( because it always looks good) but yellow looks great as well especially on a yellow car. The mp3's got yellow calipers from factory and it looks awesome on the blue ones

When I had my yellow msp I kept the factory silver color. I found the factory silver coating hard to clean so I used a silver brush-on caliper paint, which made it easier to keep clean. .

Everyone does red, I'd go with something else.

Stock brakes = Silver or Black

Hell, even really fancy brakes need no attention.

+1 stealth for the win

Black hides them too much for me. I was thinking silver before, but I found a can of paint I bought when I had my red mx6 just sitting here. It'll be a next weeken project anyway so i have some time to think about it
