I don't think it'd be really ricey..it'd be to match up with the car.. i personally like to keep a plain simple look.. calipers are black..rims for right now are stock ..i'll end up with black fr500s soo n though.. and the car will be lowered.. its all up to you man

I agree with SnT, bro. Probably won't look too ricey, but will definitely stick out with black rims and yellow calipers. I've seen it work on some red cars. Depends on what you like. But don't take the shoes off the horse - leave the badges.

as far as the calipers, i would not go with yellow, would stand out i think. and as far as your badges, i have my trunklid shaved but left the fender badges where they are. i just think it looks so clean out back with nothing there.

I think it would look good. I have a blue car and i painted my calipers blue and in my opinon they look a ton better, it really made them kinda pop behind the wheels and it stoped the rust on the caliper
