      On one of my cars, I painted the stock calipers silver, mostly to keep rust at bay.

      Anyway, I wish I painted them black, because the brake dust collects very quickly, making them look dirty. I know you're gonna keep your RSs uber clean, but if you want to clean the caliper too, you're going to have to dismount the wheels to get at 'em. My 2 cents anyway.

          where's '4-5 track days' on the poll options? :p

          I'd go with either black of the brembo motorsport caliper color ... sorta a bronze/gold

                I agree with Il Duce, eventhough i'd normally be partial to black for a Diamond black car

                  I voted for silver but if you'd don't get silver that bronze color would look good too.

                    I'd do black... or Negaro to match your wheels :)

                    Can you fit a BBK behind those RSs or will you need spacers?

                          I cant fit the 13"s and I asked Lee to see if I could fit the 12.2's but he hasnt gotten back to me yet. If I need spacers either way Ill just go ahead and get the 13".

                              what do you suggest?? and why?? Im thinking if I go too big in the front and dont do anything in the rear, perhaps Ill fuck too much with my brake bias??
