I was thinking of painting brake calipers.....any suggestions for colour?

sure...BLACK...that way even when they are dirty it won't show and you can leave them alone!

course your car is blue....so a nice shade that will closely match your car would be okay too...

just remember if you paint them a nice bright color....they ARE going to show dirt...and just how easy is it going to be to clean them? Personally I don't want to be taking off my wheels that much.

I painted my red and they don't get as dirty as Sir Nuke made it sound:D

from far they don't look dirty at all and I just spray them with the hose whenever I'm cleaning the car...

as for color..........try to colormatch the calipers with your car. If not, the universal color for calipers seems to be red....

Gunmetal!!!

what-ever you decide... post pics... I was going to paint mine but I tabled till further notice because I couldn't decide on a color.

One thing I did figure out, 8 bottles of touch-up paint in the same color was not going to cover it.

on your car i would go for red,yellow,or blue..........my car is silver and mine are a bright blue..looks great

Blue....;)

Clever!
 

Now that's a clever idea!

Well I painted them!
 

...

Is this color baby blue? That's brave dude ;)

I painted mine white, I know it will get dirty fast, but that's why some guy invented the hose for, it looks great though I get a lot of double takes, really original I haven't seen anybody with white before, I'll post some pics tomorrow night.

look at that you can see him with the flash in the pic
brakes look nice bro

looks good.....your brave :D

white's a cool idea, mine are bright yellow and my buddies love it. And tons of people snap their necks when I drive by.
