Yellow = Win

Black = why bother painting them, black will just hide behind the black wheels you have

Red = WTF?!? on a YELLOW CAR?!?!?

besides, a lot of factory brembo's come in that anodized orange color, or dark grey, like the TC's

they are silver stock .... gunmetal would be closer to the black option you have, but would stand out better. its up to you.

I would go black... Something you may want to consider since you seem to keep your car spotless

I had mine painted yellow on my old car and they got extremely dirty super fast with all the brake dust. Eventually they just always looked dirty because the brake dust stained em.
