Just my 0.02 and I hope it doesn't offend anyone that's already painted their OEM calipers.
Please don't. It looks cheap. The OEM BMW calipers are a bit too small, and if you paint them (esp. something gaudy like red or yellow) it cheapens the look of the car. Makes you look like one of those Hyundai Velosters with painted red calipers. Like a 6er owner with a major Napoleonic complex. Not a good thing in my opinion.
Either stick with the OEM color, or upgrade to a BBK.
Either way, enjoy the ride!
