Nice! I did that to the challenger I used to own and it made a huge difference visually when looking at the car. I still need to do it to my GT.

Looks good nice color choice I hate it when I see red painted calipers on a black mustang, black on black looks so much better IMO, you should think about getting some slotted rotors it looks nicer behind the rims. Nice job

Looks great. Ford should have done black calipers for all Mustangs from the factory like the 2013 Brembo package cars.

If you could get to something similar to your stripes would be awesome! I know the guy that can do it too

Be sure to post pics with the new wheels. I'm considering painting my calipers black too in hopes it'll look better with my rims. My calipers don't look that good behind my F14's lol
