Caliper colour

[Japper]

Picking up my R56 MCS PW/B Bonnet stripes with Black JCW R105 alloys on Sept 1st.
+ Carbon wing mirrors and boot handle.

Seriously thinking of ( depending on cost of parts ) buying new calipers before delivery and having them powder coated and then having the dealer ( very friendly mechanic ) fit them before delivery

Question is..............................what colour, guys

I can only think of either Black - Stealth, but probably too stealth.

or Red - Contrast nice but nothing else red to tie in with.

Opinions please

Few reasons really. Firstly you can't do a full proper job without removing calipers. Secondly I work all week and like to DRIVE my car at weekends not have it on axle stands waiting for paint to dry and lastly the powder coating costs me nothing the fitting and bleeding of brakes costs me beer tokens, so just the cost of calipers really. As stated it depends on this cost.

Or maybe i'll wait for the full JCW brake upgrade to be released
