Default brake caliper/bracket color scheme

my car is NBM, and my rims are chrome as well as the front and rear camaro inserts. i was thinking red calipers (so that they stand out) and black brackets. black decals on the calipers also. what do ya think?

Paint the brackets black and polish the calipers. It looks amazing, just takes a while to do. I get so many comments on mine.

Letters shouls be brushed chrome - black letters wouldn't show very well.

Red with Silver brackets

Or

Charcoal Grey with Silver Brackets.

And of course decals from our sponsor Afterthoughts Auto >>>>>>>>

I think red calipers w/black brackets would look good. If you want to put the extra time into it, polish the calipers.

Red on black is a good choice. Go for it. Polished does look good, but takes some effort to polish them and more to keep them shiny.
