with a silver car.... i think i'd be slick to just clean them up, to a nice clean silver color and just clear coat them like that.

but on your car, i'd say blue... since it'd also match your headlight accents, and blue led'd interior.

haha, yeaah.... well ihad a whole can of red Caliper paint, so i went ahead and did that. and for the interior the lights will and are blue already. Red is a color that comes from the factory once in a while anyway so its not hat bad. and hey its patriotic to! Just like my flag backed emblem in front! Looks damn good under those chrome wheels to!

If your calipers are stock, I'd stick with either silver or black. I wouldn't want to draw much attention to stock brakes.
