i think red would look good... all the new GTOs have red callipers so look at a silver 06 GTO and you would have a good idea of what it would look like

Mine is a silver TA. I was going for the polished look but at the end I painted them silver with black letters. They look good with my Baer rotors

red all the way. no matter what color the car is, red just does it. everybody likes z06's right? they all come with red calipers. i might not be able to afford a z06 but hey i can copy it some.
