They clash. That's why I had mine powder coated CRM to match.

How long did it take to get the calipers repainted and how much? Was it done by the dealer? Thanks

Good question. I love Crystal Red. Kinda reminds me of Honduras Maroon on a 1962 Vette I had back in the day. Also a fan of Red calipers especially on a Torch Red Corvette. Different reds seem to clash. Stay with beautiful Crystal Red on the car and a color something other than red for the calipers IMO. I favor Silver, Black or Yellow painted calipers as better alternatives. Gets down to what you like. It is all good!

I just did red paint on my brake calipers, TireRack kit, on my crystal red C7 convert (which I've had for all of three weeks now). It looks great!

They look great! Who painted them for you and how much did it cost? Thanks!
