One time back in the 90s I decided to paint my calipers and brake drums on my '94 pickup yellow.  I asked my buddy Ian what he thought of them and what he said pretty well sums it up:  "Well...  It kind of makes you wonder who drives it."

That being said, you guys can paint you sliders whatever color you want and you'll never be as tacky as our neighboor kid who painted the steel wheels on his '68 Dart metalic gold... gaack!

It all looks good scratched off on the rocks though... To each their own! Wheel On! :biggthumpup:
