What are your guys' opinions on painting the brake calipers?

Did any of you guys paint yours and what color? Pictures would be appreciated as well!

I painted my calipers and drums red. I have the jdm honda emblems and my rims are the Konig Zero with the red line around...

It's night right now so I can't really take a picture. I'll do it asap and show you what my 4x4 (not lowered) looks like ;)

Pro Tip : if you have 4 calipers, You'll be alright because they don't heat up as much as drums, but if you have drums, let them dry long enough otherwise the paint will bubble and it looks bad. Also don't forget to change or grind your calipers/drums so they don't look crappy :)

I've got four calipers and was thinking about painting them a bright green or powder blue (something that will stand out) and wanted to see what colors other people on here have theirs painted.

Plus any advice is always appreciated!
