Need opinions on Caliper Color I have a Silver 00 Z28...
It has T-tops, black tint, chrome 5 spoke corvette rims.
I was wondering what color I should paint the calipers/brackets.....and what color i should paint the rotor hub to match.

I said red calipers with a silver bracket. Before I did mine, I read how everybody hates red calipers on silver and pewter (which mine is) cars, but I had this one pic and decided to do it based on that, it looked good! I still have to do my brackets, which I'll probably do black but for you I think silver would be nice, being that the car is silver. It's something different the red calipers, everybody else with silver/pewter cars seems to do black. Here's a pic of my car w/them done, not a great one but makes the point:

Not sure, but I think people just paint the calipter and bracket, otherwise it'll look weird and probably wear away/chip really fast, or atleast you'd think so. Don't know, maybe I'm wrong.
