I say red or "brembo" gold. My buddy (former TSX owner) says red or silver. Hope that helps. Personally, I can't picture black calipers on any car... just can't seem to visualize it. Anyone have a pic?

im a big fan of red accents on black cars... i'll vote brembo red.
yellow wouldn't look to bad either.
mine are silver... they blend in well.... almost too well.

I say a medium gloss black, my car i got very low gloss just to cover it up better, but red you have to watch it too bright on dark colors make the car look ricey...
Silver isn't bad to blend the already poor finish.

A nice subtle look would be gloss black. Very easy to do, I just did mine a couple of weeks ago. I would post some pics, but I don't have any and the car is dirty right now.

since my calipers were a rough aluminum color i went to auto zone and got high temp "cast iron" color. blends nice without too much attention to them and i painted the hubs and edges of my rotors with high temp semi gloss black. i will have to get some pics
