Painted Chrome Calipers
What do you think?
Only the letters (CORVETTE) are painted (on the LBM '04).
The calipers are chromed, not painted! My bad.
Got this idea from ICEBURGE

It looks good but the caliper seems to get lost in the wheel. Personally I would of went with Mag Red to match the car.
The main thing is that your like the way it looks

Very Cool!! What Paint was used?... I just got done with the rear Calipers and Disks...Used 1200 degree Red Duplicolor Ceramic paint and I`m not that crazy about them. This is an excellent Alternative!!

If you like it, that is the point. Personally, I think it is too much bling with the chrome/polished wheels.

No, it wouldn't look good on a black car. Just the z06 rims on mine seem to be too much chrome sometimes.
I'd like to see it with some of those rims that have the insides of the spokes painted body color.
