Default What color?????

Ok, I know that this question is asked very often, but....What color should i paint my brake calipers???? My car is a 98 ws6, black, with Torque Trust II wheels with black centers and polished lips. I am kind of picky when it comes to colors because I don't want my car to look like a rainbow , you know, yellow calipers, black wheels, silver stripes, and stuff that doesn't match. I pretty much want it to look clean. Thanks everybody.

I thought about painting them black, but since the wheels are black, it is not gonna look that nice I guess. Red is ok, no offense, but almost everybody has red calipers. What about gold? Has anybody seen anything like that?

I'd probably go black... unless I was doing the smokey and the bandit theme, then gold.

I guess that I don't even know what I want. I am thinking about getting a set of wheels with gold centers, so if I paint the calipers gold, then it is gonna look like crap. By the way, does anybody know about any wheels that my look like the GTA wheels? Gold centers???

Black would be a safe color either way you go. IMO!

I like Red...but you have black wheels and that may stand out a little too much, the Black on Black will look really good, as pictured above. Looks very clean that way, but what color would you get if you got the decals?
