Default BBK Color Help

I just recently bought a Rotora BBK (6 piston Front 14", 4 Piston Rear 14") in Red. I got a Great deal on the kit. I am thinking of getting them powered coated black. So I am looking to my350z family for some input help on color.
Keep them Red or change them to Black?

Any comments welcome.

Thanks

I'll vote for option #3

Who cares, BBK's are for performance and stop well in whatever color they are.

If you haven't put them on the car yet, I would leave them red and see how you like them before you spend the money on powder coating, just to find out later you liked them better red.

I would leave them red anyway.

I personally want the blue Rotoras 6 front 4 rear in a big way. I just can't bring myself to spend the money, certainlly won't be this year anyway.

May have to end up getting Akebono's or upgrade the base model POS brakes with rotors and stainless lines.

That's what I going to do. Do a test fit and see about the Red color. I may like it.

I to was looking at the Akebono's. I was just about to buy them when I saw a posting for a New Rotora 6/4 Full kit for a real good deal. To good to pass up.
