To caliper paint or not to caliper paint?

Hey guys! I wanna paint my calipers. I was thinking red. What do you think? Red or black or none?

Painting them does make a good difference, I recently did mine black, and it looks great. Makes it look more clean, finished and refined down there.



A tip: If you use that paint on kit kind that you use a brush for, shit can the included brush and buy a cheap 1/2 art brush to do it. Take your time and dont do it on a hot, bright, sunny day, or do it in your garage.

Hmm. As of right now I'm leaning towards red, and then if I don't like them taking them to black.
