Brake Caliper Paint

I am getting my brake calipers power coated. What color would look sweet on a black car with black rim.

with a black car and black wheels you can do just about any color you want, and it will work. I would match them to your valve cover to carry the accent, maybe a candy red?

Why not a deep purple or blue.


Or if you want to get really crazy a bright green or orange.


Depends on your style. Me I prefer dark colors, the darker the better.

Local who paints for a living had Lotus Isotope Green (Looks like highlighter yellow), I traded him my calipers for those because it looked so damn sick (Mine are now powder coated another color) then he went pink....he actually went pink before but went back to it. I hate the color pink but I gotta say it looks sick on his car. Black Evo, black wheels.

Any color goes with black. It's what u want. U don't want to pick a color u like and then later want a different color.
