Default Painted calipers

OK guys with all these threads about painting calipers. I want to know what color you thing would go best with my tungsten gray. It has Shelby razors on it, 20's the silver grey kind. Brush on or spray on? Place where you purchased the paint? I'm open to about any colors except red or yellow.

I am bias to black. I used the brushed one (duplicolor) which I got from Autozone.

I voted Blue(i know weird, i have a redstang)
anyways the blue calipers would stand out on your tungsten color. Also you could put the blue stripes on and it will transform your ride. My opinion though

Here's my Tungsten Grey with red calipers. I really wanted to do black but ended up with a wild hair and picked red at the last second. Brush on seems to be the way to go, dries fairly quickly also.

I have a tungsten stang, and painted mine ford blue. I get some very good compliments on them. I also used the caliper stickers on them. If my camera was here, I would take a pic for you, sorry

Thanks guys I would love to see blue or black on tungsten. I must admit red isnt my thing. I dont know if i can do blue stripes. I was thinking satin silver. There is one guy on here that has it and I think it looks sharp.

either blue or black would look awesome, and use a brush, duplicolor caliper paint, it's real easy and looks good
