Caliper color
As I will repaint my calipers soon, I'm still not sure if I'll go with black (stock) or red.
I like to keep my car quite stock but I like the red too.
So, what do you guys think?

Red.
They will really pop behind the stock wheels.

Another vote for Red. It is the fastest color... so I'm sure it will help you stop faster too

It's the "Arrest me" red color too!

Black, "bling" doesn't make you faster...

Yellow would work well with the blue paint. Too many "modded" cars use red in my opinion. And yellow was a Porsche caliper color

They started the Yellow brakes before they offered the PCCB option. The 993 Turbo S had Yellow calipers, and not Ceramics.

Painted my S4 brakes stock black and did the lettering in red. I like the look.

Black. Red is too tricked out.
