Palladium Silver Caliper colors?

Anyone have any pics or recommendations for caliper colors on a palladium silver benz? It's between red (p31) or blue right now, but I'm open to something else.

Blues I'm looking at are cobalt, burple, electric. I just need specific color codes though.

Also going with white AMG decals. I have silver F14s and OEM 19s.

I have to look around but I saw silver with copper calipers and it was nasty.

I think the green/lambo green would look best on black and not so hot on silver. I know red is also the most common but would also look good on silver.

i think the blue would look pretty good but , if it were me , i would go with a bright yellow or bright red . i have always been a fan of factory big brake kits on exotics or european sports cars....of course this is just my $.02

I think Blue would look sick on that color.

my opinion is...Palladium Silver color will only match with grey/silver, red or black and you have grey/silver already and if black.. you wont see it coz its dark so RED IT IS

Yes
Someone here had Lamborghini green and it looked great!! Although think it was iridium, either way green looks great if you're ok with being flashy.

I'm a bit biassed but before deciding the colour of the decals, decide on the colour of the callipers. White will not suit all colours.

Thanks for the pics Faris.

I ordered a couple sample blue paints (blu caelum, sonic blue, nissan monterey blue (couldn't find lambo monterey blu)). We'll see if I can find something I like. If not, going with red.
