What color to paint brake calipers?
Im thinking of ricing my car just a little bit. I am having a hard time deciding on the color.
Car is green.
Edit: Damnit, I forgot to add "Leave as is" as one of the poll options.

If your looking for rice, i think red is sick. But I would go with black on my car for a more clean look, i think silver might be a bit flashy. Keep in mind black wont really ever really "look" dirty compared to say red.

I didn't say chrome did I? Painting them does TWO things. It helps inhibit corrosion from the elements (unless you track-race the thing, then the paint burns off) and second it keeps them looking good longer. I don't see it any different than painting the valve cover, or polishing engine parts, or putting a picture of a Pirate Miata as an Avatar...
We all have our own taste.
