What color to paint calipers?
I'm really thinking about going color matching with the car, navy blue.
And using chrome or silver TA decals for them.
Or should I go with silver calipers with black or navy blue lettering, or black with chrome or silver lettering?
All the stripes/badges/inlays on the car are going to be a metallic silverish
Edit: I don't want it to stand out too much (ie like red calipers would on a blue car)

Navy Blue Metallic- `98 Formula M6 HdTp
The Red won't look too bad, I did it on my NBM Formula. Mine need to be redone so I am going with the Silver/Aluminum color for a change.
I vote for the silver with Blue or Black lettering on yours.

haha. I figured I would get answers all over the place
i've narrowed it down to navy blue or silver calipers
the navy blue would have chrome/silver lettering
the silver would have navy blue lettering
hmmmmmm
