I know people will think it's a waste to have black calipers for BBK, but it will look clean. I would get black calipers if I got BBK. Or a flat gold to match the VS emblems on my wheels.

Getting ready to pull the trigger on either black calipers with white lettering or red calipers with white lettering. My apologies to everyone who voted yellow...

I think that the monster cross drilled rotors will show off the brakes more than enough without red or yellow calipers!

I need some BBK's first. Any of you M5 guys have your stock brakes you want to sell me for cheap (*cough* free)?
Calton wants green calipers for his M5~ Maybe he'll sell them to you for cheap after he gets a BBK upgrade?
