I’ve never been a fan of painted stock calipers. Looks cheesy to me. But to each their own

Just not worth it. Clean the OEM ones. No one notices unless it is a Ferrari, GT3, or a 9114S.

I painted mine black so they'd not be noticeable. But red is faster and even faster with stickers on them.

I agree with everyone who says silver, black or clean. The cheese factor is high with bright colored calipers, but to each his own.

I am morally opposed to painted calipers.
Clean them, yes. Paint them, no.
Resist the temptation.
