What colour should I paint my calipars?

Yeah, just keep in mind that the OEM greyish calipers look kind of dumb depending on your wheel. I have 5 spoke 20" wheels. You can see every nick and scratch on the calipers. So I'm going to get them powdercoated.

OP. The grey ones they came with works as it is. But if you want to attract some attention, you might want to consider matched monty blue calipers with orange stencils.

LOL thanks everyone for the advice. The Bremo ones are really nice - but this went from a $20 quick job to like a $400 one LOL

But I guess you get what you pay for!

The high temp paint route does work. There was a post recently on this forum guy has had them for 2 years with the high temp paint also said it was $20. Using high temp paint isn't bad.
