just have it powdercoated. its usually about $50 a caliper to do it. then you dont have to worry bout them chipping off.

i think gold would look awesome against sport tint. or even white. but to match it, ask jackalope what he used on his balt. he is january's featured car, his calipers look awesome. they look factory.
