With a Black car....you could do any color.

My car's blue.....I was thinking either RED, Yellow, or Blue.
I was pretty set on red to play off of the color of the tail lights since the rest of the car is all black.

If you go to their website, you can see they have 11 color options to choose from: G2 Brake Caliper Paint Systems: G2 Brake Caliper Paint System Set

I think yellow or red would look best on your blue car. The blue option could look funky if it's a different shade:

I did the paint job when my brakes only had 900 miles on them so I didn't need to worry about the cleaning process as much. Since you bought some from the junkyard, be sure to do your prep work and get them as clean as you can before you paint them.
