My guess is your car is polo green?? I would go with silver also, that would look awesome, but i want blackouts, and with those I think black calipers would look awesome

Check this out.
Hopefully this will help you. I also hav the Y2k's, but in 17 & 18's. I want to do my rims gloss black and my calipers red, whenever I get a chance. MY car is black on red, the traditional style of the Z28's.

Be carefull using regular high temp paint. It will withstand the temps, but brake caliper specific paint is resistant to chemicals as well. This is important because brake fluid will ruin normal paint.

There are some others that are chemical resistant. Whatever you use, just make sure it is.

Here ya go.
You can probably have A-zone order the color you want. Be sure and post some pics when you get it done.
