Calling all design geeks, color of calipers
I want to paint my brake calipers, brilliant red roadster, color for the calipers? Red, Black or maybe yellow? Any photos or ideas appreciated.

went with engine enamel...
as far as I know, you can't match your vehicle color because you need high-temp paint... my brakes would melt before I hurt this paint
engine paint, bbq grill paint, special brake paint... all work well, with the first two being the cheapest
just make sure you use plenty of brake cleaner

I had a similar dilemma. When my car on order was still going to be Sprintblau, I was told...
...<font color="003366"> by my pal at Q-GmbH that my calipers were going to be painted Papaya U.O.D. (unless otherwise directed). AAAAAAK!
A quick e-mail later I told 'em not to bother. I'm glad I did, especially with the change to a more subtle exterior color.</font>
