Painting Brembo's

What colour would people recommend on a Java Black Sport?

Mine are currently grey and they need to be less boring.

(y previous 4 cars have been Subaru and Porsche, all with trademark caliper colours.) RRS gone

Hi awd man
Did you lacquer over the top of sticker after ?
(this will help stop sticker coming off and makes the brake dust come off easier
when you wash the wheels.) Thumbs Up
I painted my rear calipers black,hub & brake disc bells as it gets my goat when i see rust coming through Exclamation
