Getting ready to put new rotors and pads on all 4 corners. Going to paint the rotors semi gloss black. Might as well clean up and paint the calipers while the tires are off. Thoughts on what color to paint the calipers?

Black, silver or red?

Thanks guys.

If I owned your truck I would either paint them blue or gray. Blue to match the body color or gray to match the wheels. Or just black to make them not stand out so much but look clean.

Looks good. Painting the rotors black this weekend just like in Tony's NorcalSS thread here. Should look good just like your pic showed here. Thinking maybe just going semi gloss black for the rotors and calipers for a super clean look. Thx your input.

I say silver. Will stand out but not super obvious like red. Black will blend in too much.

I agree, at least do silver if you are going to bother with it. Black just looks like you didn't clean the calipers.
