Painted my calipers gloss white. I am very happy with the outcome, it's a nice classy look with the Starfire pearl/white body.

It would be awesome to have a get together outside of the car shows etc. Mine are already painted but I like hanging out..I live in Frisco so we are all relatively close to each other.

Default Atomic Silver

What color would you recommend painting the calipers on an Atomic Silver GS350 F Sport?

It looks awesome! I see that you're in AZ. How much would you charge me to do it on my car also?

If I had the time I would definitely paint them for you, but I have a crazy work schedule. I can refer you to my buddy Andrew, he is a auto body/painter located in mesa. He does quality work & is well known in the AZ lexus community. Check out his work on Instagram.. username: apwdrew , I'll pm you his number.

What color will look good on a red GS with black rims? Honestly as generic as red brake calipers are I think it'll look good bc the car is red too you know

Black calipers with red lettering would also look good!

Thanks for the guide guys. I've decided to do black calipers with white F Sport Decal.
Do you guys just use a regular vinyl decal? and then the high temp gloss enamel protects it I assume?
Wouldn't thy vinyl melt/shrivel up otherwise? I have a vinyl plotter so i can make my own decals to save myself some $$$
