I'd go with blue since its new and unique, i haven't seen many blue calipers. I think red is overused, not that it doesn't look badass, but it's still overused. Just my opinion, in the end, it's all up to you. Try to get one of the members to Photoshop both colors and decide. I am Def not up for black or silver
Help! I need some opinions on Caliper Colors.
UPDATE! Covers Completed! Help! I need some opinions on Caliper Colors.
I'm thinking of painting or getting some caliper covers for my Sedan SX. The problem is I'm not sure which direction to go for a color.
Red is probalbly the most common choice, which is one of the reasons it's low on my list. I like the original silver color of the calipers, but I know it won't last so I need to cover them. Heres' my thoughts so far...
1) Color Match (Korsa Blue/Electric Blue Metallic)
2) Silver
3) Gloss Black
4) Red
Take a look at eh picture below and give me your opinions. Thanks.

Thanks everyone, I think I'll be going with the color matched blue from MPG just like WandersX.
I've already got a response from MGP saying they can color match so I'll probably go this route as well.
Cheers!

First look at the new Caliper Covers installed!
I finally got around to installing my custom caliper covers from MGP.
A special thanks to FEARtheFOX for getting me a graphic that MGP could use for the custom engraving.
I had them custom painted in Corsa Blue to match the car and custom engraved with the Forte logo and then had my vinyl guy cover them in 3M clear with a special polymer coating to keep them looking good for years to come.
I only managed one good picture before I had to put on the snows but it gives a good idea of the finished product.

I know the next question is going to be how much did they cost? With custom paint, engraving, shipping, duty & tax and vinyl, approx $650 for the 4. Not cheap, but then not common either.
