wheels/brembos same color?

Has anyone done this? Changed the brembo caliper color, and color matched the wheels?

I have mine in ford blue, and would like to think blue wheels would look good on silver :-p

There's bound to be at least one example in the re-painted brembos thread

I think there would be too much blue going on around where your wheels are and it will kinda hide your brembos. I like contrast between the calipers and wheel

Actually had a shop down in South Carolina do the work. I believe they repainted the calipers and did a few coats of high gloss clear coat. I was originally planning to have them powder coated but this was more convenient.
