HAHAHAHA . My girlfriend almost killed me when I asked her this question.

Orange is a hard color to match. Blue, Red, and Yellow won't look right. So you're stuck with Black or Silver.

I did the fronts and the backs in black. I think it looks 100x better now. I couldn't imagine many other colors working very well with an orange balt.

Im gonna risk it and go with the sunburst orange GM paint in between high temp primer and clear coat. If it doesnt work ill repaint them but if it does it should be HOT!!!!

I'm doing mine right now literally with duplicolors metal cast orange paint. We will know how it works by the end of the day. I'm just waiting for my paint to dry so I can do the clear.

I think it's going to look great! If not I'm doing black.

Alright guys, here is how mine turned out. There ok.

Orange, I think calipers should match the color of your car IMO.
