Just got my new smoothie II's. With the new rims, the calipers are very visible (when compared to the salad shooters) so I want to paint 'em. My car is black and I have silver badge overlays and rear insert (thanks Brent). So here are my options:

- gloss black caliper with silver lettering
- silver caliper with black lettering

What do you you think would look better?

 

Gloss black with silver lettering.

While I think silver with black lettering would look good too, I think the two looks would be about "equal" and since it is easier to keep black calipers looking good, I'll have to vote for black

 

I'll vote for black too. I have the same setup as you (not the smoothie II's, but black car with silver decals from Brent). I just did the LS1 brake upgrade so here are some pics of my calipers
