What a tease!!!
I'm very curious to see your color. It's hard to imagine blue calipers on a silver car. Looks like you have brilliant silver, too?

Was going to do yellow originally but as of late...yellow is the new red...

Hopefully that blue will be enough to "pop" behind some satin charcoal wheels...

I'm on the same page. Was leaning towards yellow, which will look great on our color, but seems to be getting common. It's still in consideration for me, but looking at blues now.

Satin Charcoal is going to look HOT on silver
