def NOT white. that would be terrible to keep clean

it would. but so would a white car

i think powdercoat woul dbe the best but the wilwood logo would be lost in the process.

Shouldnt be that difficult with ceramic pads. The inside of my rims are still fairly clean and Its been probably 8 months since I cleaned them.


"Oil Leak ? What oil Leak ? Oh, Thats Just The Sweat From All The HorsePower!!"

Go with red.
Just scuff up the calipers with a 3M scotchpad and paint away.
Use the Duplicolor 500 degree ceramic based high temp paint and it'll come out nice.
This is the paint I've always used for painting calipers and I've never had the paint rust over, under, or peel or chip away.
It's amazingly durable paint if done right and your surface is clean and properly prepped.

Here's an example on my neon rears I and they came out fabulous.




Colorful, no?

But seriously, it's quite durable, and something I'll continue to use.
I don't know if this will help you but when that time comes I'm going to match the front Wilwoods in red with the backs.
I'm not going to worry about the lettering either unless Wilwood has some kind of stickers that can be applied to the calipers. If not, no biggie and I'll do without.

Good luck with your decision man.
