With my blue car I did not like the red calipers so I painted mine body color. White calipers might look good with your white car with red or black lettering.

The law in most of the lower 48 states requires red! Better check your local ordinances!

As I mentioned in your other thread, go with red - you won't be sorry.

Red calipers black wheels and a white car would clash imo,
Why not paint the calipers white, and the Corvette lettering black...

It all depends on the car color. I went with black on my Dark Metallic Bowling Green because I didn't want it to look like a Christmas tree..
And Jim.... you can't be serious... why would our fearless leaders care what color brake calipers are? Oh wait a minute, ticket revenue right?
