I have blue Stoptechs on my E90 M3. Blue is nice since it kind of hides the brake dust. Something to consider...it is kind of a pain pulling the wheel to clean your brake caliper.

I've always thought black or silver is good unless you have a really nice looking caliper/rotor setup that is worth drawing attention to that area. In that case, red/yellow/blue/silver can look good.
I just always think it's funny looking when you have a nasty rusty rotor and dirt/dust everywhere then this bright red caliper.

yellow does look beautiful on a dark gray car…..the “problem” is that my best buddies that I hang out with 2-3 times a week all drive dark gray car with yellow calipers lol…..a porshe , a hellcat and a trackhawk……I fell like the color combination is a bit played out to much in my inner circle of friends lol so I’d like to try out something different…..beautiful set up you have though! What diameter front rotors are you running on there?

I think purple looks good too and is a throwback to the OG M colors.
