well i couldn't decide what color to paint my calipers that matched the black cherry pearl, so i just went with silver.. it may not stand out too much, but i think it looks clean and matches the rims well..

so if anyone else is looking for a color that's not too rice-y, i'd go with this...

here's some before and afters-

Nice. Makes it look a bit cleaner back there.

Nice, probably not too many colors that would look good on a caliper against the purple.

was it spray? or was it brush on?

i did brush-on, the silver Duplicolor caliper kit... i wouldn't mess with sprays unless you have a garage to do it in... if the slightest breeze comes by, you'll have specks of paint everywhere.

I've considered doing gold on mine, but haven't gotten around to it yet. The silver looks good.

Nice.
I'm going black on mine... Looks clean too!
The red/blue calipers look too ricey to me.
Unless the car is red/blue, ya know?
I didn't think silver would do much, but it works.

Peace
