caliper paint

What color caliper paint looks the best with a 2000 black se? Any pics would be great. I'm thinking red. Also has anyone used Dupli-Color ?

Black or silver.
Red is ok with aftermarket calipers, but is super rice on your OEM calipers, imho. You don't want to draw attention to your wimpy OEM calipers do you?

Didn't think so.

Think about how many ricers you see with OEM calipers painted red....don't be a ricer. Red is only ok if you have a BBK or Z calipers....

that's just my opinion, though.

By the way I bought G2 brake paint. Haven't put it on yet (need warm, dry weather) but I hear it's very strong and looks good.
