Paint them Black or polish....
Ignore the dirty wheel with the center cap off. The car is black, the wheel is black, the rotors are black... should I polish the calipers for contrast or paint them black to blend it...?

I vote polish. Blacking out (aka murder out) a car is nice but too much black can ruin it. If you've tinted your taillights don't even think about painting in this case. I may not know much about performance but I'm good with aesthetics.

That's my car... it's black with black headlights and wheels. I haven't touched the tails yet, but I wanted the APC covers and then paint them black.

It's hard to use a black/white pic to judge how the color should be. I like powerz' idea. You'll still have your SS blacked out but the SS (silver or white) would still provide the contrast. Good idea powerz!
