Default Help me choose a rotor and caliper color combo

Hey guys, I am turning to you to suggest a paint scheme for my calipers and rotors on my pewter SS. I will post a few pictures just so you can get a visual of what it will look like with your suggested color. As of now, the calipers need to be sprayed so they are the same color, one was replaced and never repainted so I want them to match. Also the rotor hats are starting to rust and take away from the appearnce IMHO. So please suggest a color combo for my calipers and rotors. I was going to do the rotors satin black and the calipers gloss black just to keep it clean looking, but I also tossed around adding red to the calipers and keeping the rotors satin because Cartek Racing is painted onto the hood in red so it would flow with that. Im just undecided on what to do, and there are a ton of guys on here who have excellent taste in style sooo help me out.

Everybody and their brother has red calipers. I think it looks terrible on Pewter cars IMO.

If you want to paint the rotors, i would go satin black. Gloss black brackets and silver calipers would look nice. Or vice versa.

Thanks for the suggestion, and yeah I feel the red is overused as well.
