Caliper color idea for gunmetal rims and IP coupe

I am getting my stock 19's painted a gunmetal color. I am also thinking of getting my calipers painted. I am thinking of doing a blue color. But I am still undecided. I was wondering if people would share there pictures of Moonlight white or Ivory pearl G's with blue calipers.

I have attached the color I am going with, maybe the blue and my current wheels.

I'm big on the magnesium-colored calipers with red lettering. Looks all biz no fluff.

I'd rather have glow-in-the-dark rotors. Means I've been leaning on the brakes rather hard.

Not sure if this will help any but here are some blue calipers under anniversary 370z rims which are a gunmetal color.



What they looked like when not hidden under the rim:



It was a custom pearl candy blue; pictures don't do them any justice (nor does phone pictures).

I usually say burnt copper or gold but with your car being white and the color you're going with for your wheels I'd definitely say blue would look real sexy man.
