Painted calipers pic request

Literally just got my hands on a 5 lug swap for my s4. Want to clean and powder coat the calipers but not sure what color. Help me please!

I did silver one time, then when I did a big brake upgrade I made them more of a gunmetal

I would put pictures but photobucket is being a c*nt and not allowing 3rd party links any longer

Heres what mine looked like, going to pick them up in a few hours from my powder coater. I'll post another pic of them in the new color tonight for you.

This is my new color, I really wanted teal but I guess he couldnt get it to lay right with the fins. Purple was my second choice, maybe ill have them redone in a year or so. I also want to get some vynl stickers or something made up so the letters will be white, anyone else have a better idea to get the letters white now?

I went with silver. I wanted a stock/low key look.

Best pic I have of my 4 pistons that I painted blue. This pic is from like 3 years ago and the car has been wrapped metallic blue since then, they definitely don't stand out as much with the car being blue now. I'll have to grab another pic when I get home.
