What colour for my calipers?

Disclamer: typing of my iPhone at work

So this winter when my car is parked I'm going to be painting my calipers and I'm not sure what collies I'm going to so. I have a silver SS with black rims.

I was thinking either a bright green with brembo in black, the same blue as the calipers on the ZR1 with brembo in white or black, or match the silver of my car with the brembo in red.

Oh I will also probably do any engine accents (not alot) I do to match

I already have black rims and I wanted a colour that would stand out from the black

I personally redid mine with g2 high temp black paint. I still have stock rims though. Anything black with silver looks nice.

I'll be doing them myself at my dads autobody shop, I might tape off the brembo when I paint them or get some stickers off eBay
