I think copper looks best on calipers but not painted. Gotta step up and get 'em powder coated or anodized. Hit the leather kid

You are correct. Red is WAY too common. Even one of the Moms that picked up her kid from daycare where mine goes has her OEM calipers painted red on her car. Yellow would look wicked on a blacked out car.

All the new AMG's have Orangish/Copperish.

Check my pics from the NYC Autoshow.

I think reversing the stock would look good. Black with silver logo paint.

that "copperish" looks pretty good, i plan to get my rims painted black. also, but not any time soon.

I had yellow last time.. so im thinking lime green, only thing is.. would that contrast with the red tail lights? lol

Once again, do you ever search before you make these posts? Let me guess your next post is going to be "I need help pumping my gas"

RED will look good. Matches with everything. Who cares if it's common as long as it looks good. IMO, If you want that classic & sporty look, I will go with RED.

Lime Green, really?!!!
