I have the same car color combo. I want to paint mine red but can't find anyone to do it in the same day. I found one guy that will powder coat them but I have to take the brakes apart myself. However I don't know how to do that.

Why not go black/silver on the calipers and do the logo in a brighter color, like the red or blue you mentioned? Stil get a pop of color, but not too much. Can't wait to see the car with some CV3's!

I'd do a charcoal as close to the F sport wheels as possible and make the logos red.
