I always thought painting stock calipers was kind of a ricer thing to do. So my color recommendation is none.

I see what you mean, i have upgraded brakes on my pathfinder and a BBK on my Audi, but on a car this expensive new id expect some kind of coating. The brakes on this arent necessarily weak either so its not just show and no go. The 4.8is brakes quicker then the CLS500 in a road test. And thats lighter and a "sedan coupe".

So nobody in this thread got through to you. It's your car and you earn all the comments that go with it - good or bad. My opinion is that you are "ricing" it out with red. Whateve's dude, you're young and have a lot to learn.

To each his own. Everyone is different and likes different things. Mine are blue to match the roundel.
