What color are you wheels? Chrome? black? gunmetal?
If the blacked out includes the wheels Id go with blue or black for calipers

Red calipers will surely look good on black rims.

For SS models with Brembo I always like a matched factory color with the brembo decals.
For v6 models, black or silver, we don't have nice calipers, painting em red just makes it look like civic or something. Personally I used high temp BBQ paint with a brush and it dries even with no brush marks matte black. And been on there for 2.5 years now. Best 9 bucks I've ever spent.

Do something to match your car, I love red but I don't think it will be the best match with the Imperial Blue car color.

what about a BRM with soon to be dipped or powder coated wheels (black)? Theyre chrome now. I was thinking red.
