I just traded my c5 for a c6. I would like to see some ideas and pics of white vetts with painted calipers to help me decide what color to make mine. I'm going with red but open for offers.

Red is pretty universal and standard - it works with most setups. one thing you should ponder first is if you will keep your current wheels, or if you'll be changing them.. and to what color. you need to make sure whatever color you choose for your calipers will work with your eventual wheel goal (or repaint them later..)

atomic orange is a pretty sweet caliper color. that's what I went with on my white 5.0. I may do the same on my white c6, but I am waiting to figure out what wheel color I go with.

I've never seen color match with white calipers. That might be kind of cool,

Awesome color choices!!!

Red looks great on an AW vette.
