Red face Calipers' color on Silver Protegé ?

Hey guys...
Winter is finish here north of the border so I gotta paint my calipers again !!! Last year I painted them silver, but this time I want them to be more noticeable !!!

So what would be the best color on a silver Pro : Red or Yellow !???

Thanks ...

If red and yellow are your only two options, then I'd go with red if I were you.

Red also. Yellow sometimes looks washed out.

I would like (if you don't mind) you to post some pics of your
car with the silver calipers
I would like to see what they looked like because I think they look great(I never seen one done before)

But to answer your question, if the options were endless, I would color your calipers blue, (that kind of color in the sad face, maybe a little darker too ).....But if only with the two available choices, i would go with the majority, red

but defiently not pink, and defiently with not white roses
It may look good on a beetle, convertible....lol....

I have to agree with pro00... from what I can see of them in the pictures.. I think silver looks awesome and I'd stick with that..

I know my car looked good with silver calipers, but they were just not enough noticeable ! With the stocks rims, they just seem to disappear !!!

Pro00, Ill posted some pics on one of my previous post :
Calipers
But if you want mores just tell me !!!

Nobody here think yellow would look good on a silver Pro ? I did a photoshop and its not that bad !!!

Anyway... keep the opinions coming !

EVERYONE does red or yellow.. I haven't painted my calipers because I'd make them red to go with my red car, but red calipers are so common, it's almost more rare to leave them unpainted!

Silver looks awful tempting though....
