Titanium was my choice for calipers and inside rotors.
I was going to do black, but decided to experiment with the titanium paint that I used for my MX-6 valve covers & intake plenums. I'll submit pics as soon as the weather allows.

I'm going with gold just to be a little different.

Hammered Gold would probably look good with those accents, IMO.

^Yeah something close to that and I've got Polak's RX8 caliper stencils that I'm doing in black on them. Should look pretty decent.

Tiggerlee,

That should match your gold accents pretty nicely.

For a black I definitely think Red is the way to go though...
