I like the idea of red myself, especially on a black car.

please, no more red calipers! they look good, but they're SO done to death.

I plan on going with either "blue oval" blue, or chrome.

I like the idea of painting them black.....would look clean and sleek on your black car.

I saw a kit (but I'll be dammed if I can remember where) that offered color matched caliper paints.... so I was thinking of doing mine blue on blue.... wasn't particularly expensive and looked just as good as the rest.... not sure how black on black would color but for all the red and yellow Mustangs I think color matched calipers would look pretty sweet!
