Pic request: Montego Blue FD with Red calipers

I'm thinking about painting my calipers porshe red, but There is apsolutely nothing red on my car. I have clear lights and they are tinted so the car looks all dark and stuff. I was just thinking what would it look with red calipers or maybe some other color on MB.

Thanks

You can just sand off the paint from the "mazda" part.....

FWIW, I painted mine black, just because the red would clash too much with the montego blue (i thought).

What technique would you use to do that? Masking it off, then cutting the tape or whatever with a razor?

I masking-taped the rest of the fender lining, & sprayed mine black all over. Then, I used a dremel and very lightly sanded off the raised lettering. I'm told you can also go over it with a brush & paint them as well.
