I am going to get my front calipers powder coated. However I can't decide on a colour. I want it to draw attention to the brakes (9.5" vented Honda brakes) but not look gaudy. The car is orange with white powdercoated SportPack wheels. I don't want to go yellow, pretty sure not red. I was thinking maybe a blue or silver. White? I just can't decide. Any thoughts, input. Thanks eh.

Orange ? It will match the car and draw attension to your disk/wheels

My vote is black.
Gone are the days that people really give a toss about calipers and disc presence.
