| I need to refinish the brake calipers on my Ram SRT. I just finished re-doing the engine bay in polished aluminum and candy blue, question is should i match the calipers to the candy blue in the engine bay, or keep the red? Or do something like a candy red instead? Truck is silver.
Thanks | |

| I think the pop of blue down in the wheels would look great and tie the engine bay work together. | |

| Right on. That was the original plan, to do matching blue, but at $500 for PC it's not a decision I want regrets about. | |

| I got Inferno paint to do mine over the winter. Since I have black rims I thought doing them black would blend too much. And since they aren't Brembos I don't want them bring red, plus bright red on my car would look strange. | |

| Tom C did it to his car, blue calipers, and it looks really good. I know he posted pics of it, just not the same color blue, it really pops. | |

| My old R32 had blue calipers, and I've seen Tom's at shows. It does look good.
