Red for that little splash of color... Black for clean look.

VOTED RED.

I'm in the same boat as you, I have a kona blue 2010 gt and have black wheels. I can't decide what color I want to paint my calipers. I was really leaning towards black but it really does blend in with the wheels.. I would really like to see silver.

I used to have red, but I switched to silver cause the red was too distracting on my car. Silver keeps it subtle, but still looks much better than stock. (sorry, but i just realized I don't have any pictures of my car from the side, just from an angle)

Don't lie! You just wanted to show the whole car didn't you?

It looks awesome, what hood is that?
