I'm unsure about the caliper colour. I'm having the same dilemma myself - i'm very reluctant to go with red, as it's a bit too common.
Thanks for the compliments guys, has been a long time in the making and a good feeling to have some wheels fitted that suit the Focus. Funny you mention the Ford option of these wheels - I actually picked them out a month or so ago, them remembered Ford now offered aftermarket wheels and noticed they listed the same wheel! At least I knew they would fit!

Regarding the calipers - I agree with you and RJ089 - I like the look of red, but everyone does red and I don't want to look like a Brembo wannabe! Thought a gloss black would look best, grey may just look like I have BAD brake dust!

Interesting choice, orange would certainly stand out! Just a shame most manufacturers don't make green caliper paint
