painting calipers, what color though?
well im thinking about red or white? would that match up with a white car with black rims? would white calipers look good? i know youre all gonna say its personal preference but, im not that good at matching colors on cars. so let me know what would look good. any pics would be helpful, especially if its a white monte. thanks all.

i like the white idea but there is a prob with it. white will show brake dust like no other so idk if it were me i'm lazy & wouldnt wanna deal with all of that so id just go with red bcuz it would look good too

the thing about cleaning the calipers daily is, i clean the whole car everyday. and i polish the rims every other day.(i clean those also daily) so i mean, if you think white would look good, im gonna go with that. but do you all think that white would look good then?? whatever i do decide to go with, im doing the whole thing the same color.

i see you have black wheels with silver lip. if it's me i paint the caliper bracket silver and black on the caliper and maybe silver vinyle letters on the calipers.

It's a tough call here... I too always paint my calipers the color of my car... I did it on my Mustang (grabber orange), I did it on my Monte LS (red) and plan on do it on the truck (red again). But my NEW Monte, the Dale Jr. SS, I just plan on repainting them a high gloss black and maybe doing a decal of some sorts... It is personal preference for sure. I do like the idea of doing the bracket and caliper a different color. The front of my LS had red calipers and black brackets. I'd say go for the black and white.... on either the caliper and/or bracket and mix it up. If you clean as much as you say you do, white wouldn't make a difference. PLUS, you'd be quite the trend setter with WHITE calipers! I say go for it!
