Black caliper with silver brackets would look pretty sharp

i do like how that sounds and it would keep my black and silver theme. though I am looking for a touch of color in the engine bay maybe the dog bones and what not, but i would match them to the calipers. hm black wouldnt be a bad choice though

I hink black and silver looks like you did nothing to them because that is the stock colors of them. I think blue would look good.

Red is rather, common. I said yellow but then again, yellow is also pretty common - blue is rarely done and it looks good also - so if you want to go for the original factor, go with blue. Blue with silver brackets or yellow with black brackets would be nice!

I'd have to agree with black also. I have plans to paint mine on my black 04 D/E edition.I had thoughts of going red but the idea of red on the brake pads that are somewhat exposed don't appeal to me. Explain what it is that you are calling "brackets"

I have red brembos on my Magnum so I went with the black and red theme throughout. With my 02 D/E, I think I am going with silver calipers and red decal. I think black would look good on yours.

i did mine black including the brackets, you can't see the calipers unless you actually look for them, i like that better since i got original wheels and don't need my ORIGINAL calipers to stick out like a sore thumb it will look taky
