Up to you............I did blue and I'm a Ti-gray. Just make sure it high temp paint if you are going that route.

Ti Gray....i'd say black or red but thats me. I bought my G2 caliper paint from TireRack, a little expensive but it looks damn good.
You can also buy'em @ the local Auto Zone, O'Reily's etc. for like $10-$20 bucks but they don't look as bright/glossy compare to G2. They look dull, glad i went G2.

I've also bought caliper decal from here as well...too bad it doesn't have the RX-8 option only Mazda. You can prolly special order them >shrug<
Just click on the color palett and see combination of black caliper w/ red letter ect.

If I were you, I would get them powdercoated. They will look soo much better and last much longer. I would say either blue or red. I went with blue for my Ti Gray, but it is up to you. Check out my garage for pics.

How hard is it to paint yourself. I have been wanting to do this. Do you take your tire off or take the caliper off? I have never done this before.

i took my calipers off of the vehicle, cleaned them and painted them....i work at a dealership so it wasn't a big deal for me....just had one of my lifts tied up for a day or so.....i've seen alot of people just paint them on the car though

Sushi

Is it hard to do it on the car? even if done on the card wouldnt you take the Tire off? Do you just coat it on there evenly or what. Like I said, I have not done this before and want it to look good.

i think red looks best on ti and ss. mine flaked a little too you need to clear coat them.

black would be my second choice.

Black and the G2 kit is recommended.

Here is WB with blue. Definitely do a brush on caliper paint... Taking them off and spray painting is a total PITA
