I know that most might not agree with me on this but a bright silver with black letter would look good. I have seen blue Corvettes Grand Sports with black wheels and silver ones and they looked very nice. The brighter the silver the better. :tup:

Not a blue one and red letters instead of black, but maybe this will help??

Looks like the nismo rims...

I'd do a colour similar to the OEM R35 calipers

Mike is a veteran and sponsor on the forums and does really good work from what i have seen. you should check with him.

Blue would be to much IMO. Also I think red goes great with the MBlue

But I guess im biased. If you do not plan on tinting your tails it ties in perfect with them.

as long as the calipers are bbk (like akebono's) i dont mind having a good contrast with the wheels, like the red with gunmetal wheels. i kinda like the factory graphite color though.

but if it's the base non-bbk calipers, then best to keep it a dark color to not emphasize the tiny caliper and rotor... and get a more bright colored wheel set to emphasize the wheels.

I know all about Mike, I bought the black "Nissan" logos from him, but between school and work I don't have enough time now to really ship off my calipers to be powdercoated. I'd love too but just not right now, that's why the guy I was originally going to go to got my interest he doesn't powdercoat them, just spray them but theres a 2 hour turn around and that's good news for me.

You might want to check in with him and see if he has a spare core he can send you so you have minimal down time
