Default Red or Black?

What do you think would look good on my greystone 04 SE?

Dupli-Color kit? I just use a high temp, high gloss red. It is meant for engines but works great on calipers and is only $5.

I used a brush on..

Later you will prefer a spray on..they have it in caliper paint now. I'm a fan of the black. Don't move attention from the rims to the caliper.
