Colored OEM Calipers....?

OB looks so good clean, paint the calipers gloss black. While you're at it
paint the edge of your discs too, there's an area about an inch wide that
gets rusty....rust and OB doesn't work....

Black. You don't want the stock brakes to stand out. They are the same basic brakes that you find on Mustangs, Neons, and Crown Victorias. Nothing to show off.

Now get a BBK like Tim, and you want them to stand out in bright red.

OEM = black. No need to draw attention to the calipers. BBK is another story

I've got the same setup on my OB G35. I love it. Nice a subtle and has held up perfectly. I didn't even do a great job prepping them.
