Eh... Help me decide color
I'm thinking of having some Brembo's powdercoated. These are my current choices.
My car is Super Black. I'm leaning towards #3 which is the reddish.
What do you guys think? Bump if anyone has Brembo's other than oem as well.

I'm a fan of the top middle red and the entire bottom row of blue. I know I've seen some red and blue brembo pics floating around, but I'm in class now and can't find them. If your tail lights are not tinted, I think you'd be real safe to go with the red. The blue would stick out a bit more though I imagine, especially a brighter one.

Id say go with the bottom row second or forth blue. The third is to dark and the first is to light but I would want it to be noticeable just not completely out there. Just my .02. Good Luck with your choice

Not sure, I asked him to email me color templates and this is what he had. He said he has a gold color, but it isn't exactly oem.
He said he also had Ceramacoat?? Not sure of that process by comparission. Said more of a flat color without sparkles.. do not want.

Not sure about the powdercoat, but even the OEM paint on brembos can get darker if the brakes get really hot. It can be somewhat of a badge of honor among track guys (or signal a bad pad choice 
). Something to keep in mind--whatever you go with it has the potential to darken, especially if you hit the track at all.
My vote is for one of the reds. The light blue is a bit Project Mu, and I have always liked the symmetry between red calipers and red taillights, but hey being different and going the white route could be nice too.

Out of those Id say the red you were talking about or the blue below it. Depends what other color scheme your trying to pull off with your car though... Like interior accents or something.

Yellow, great contrast with black. What color/style rims do you have? I also have a black Zee, mine is an 08 and is the MAG black w/ fMatte black wheels and I'm considering a BBK as well and thinking of getting them powder coated yellow with black lettering. My second choice would be a shade of blue, maybe something similar to the shade on the bottom, second from left. Good luck choosing, let us know what you decide and post pics.
