gold can look pretty cool on calipers. Makes them look like new if done properly

On my corsa I have both done in silver and I think they look well and fit in nicely with the rest of the car. If your looking for something that will stand out you could do red at the front and silver at the back. My mate just did this on his astra and it turned out very well. I would strongly advise you against painting the front and back the same colour if your going for any colour other than black or silver as this will stand out too much
