I have blue calipers on my WB

I used duplicolor (or dupilcolor?) blue caliper paint. Used the same paint color on my engine cover and front strut bar.
I would highly suggest a brush on paint, spray painting the calipers is a PITA

i'd do blue calipers and gunmetal wheels. the bronze looks okay if you go aftermarket but i think it would be too much if you're planning on powdercoating the stockers. i'm not a fan of red calipers and don't think i could imagine yellow on anything but LY.

Save the money and go for spelling, grammar, and punctuation lessons?
Sorry, couldn't resist!
Honestly, the only thing that you might want to really paint would be the calipers. If you paint the rims, it will eventually look all jacked up!
