Can't decide about caliper paint.
I'm gonna be installing AD22VF brakes soon and I'm thinking of painting them with some G2 paint. Only problem is I can't decide what color would look good on my car (if any). someone tell me what they think or even if I should go with no color.

I'd either go Red to keep a common theme but I'd opt for cream-yellow, similar to the Spec-V Brembo package. It practically goes with any color. Don't paint them blue, trust me. I was seriously considering changing the color of my car but decided to keep it Teal. Blue and Teal definitely do not go good together. I don't have aftermarket wheels as of yet so thankfully you can see my calipers. Other than that perhaps gunmetal.

white. Or silver. Or maybe orange. nice car, though. The z3 fenders aren't something I'd have done to anything other than a z3, but otherwise, it looks good.

you know, I think it may be too much to paint them, no real color looks that good on there except maybe white, black, or silver. I think black and silver would be a waste b/c it's not really noticable, and white would be impossible to keep clean (jus like my wheels).
