    I know this is one of the things I wish i NEVER did. DO not go blue. I painted my calipers... Now it looks like a smurf is holding my rotors.... one day Ill get off my lazy @$$ and paint them black.

    I say orange, Just make sure it's not a shade that's close to red.

    They have performance brakes too. If I had like a set of HIGH quality brakes and not stock I would probably not mind it as much.
