I'd paint them silver.

Ditto on silver. Car silver, lip is chrome, it will give you a nice flow. Red will put too much concentration on the calipers themselves. I am a firm believer of subtle details.

I wouldn't paint them without taking them off.

I'm pretty partial to red calipers...its a matter of taste. I love how they look with pretty much any wheel on any car. I used to have a set of Velox VX8R wheels on my last Teg and the red caliper reflecting off the lip looked pretty bitchin to me. Again, its all a matter of taste.

As far as taking the calipers off...it all depends on the effort you feel like putting into it. I've never taken calipers off to paint them. You can simply put a trash bag around your rotor and spray the caliper. You can hit it from all angles this way and what you can't necessarily see, doesnt necessarily have to get painted.

x2! The only right way to do it.

if you can...i always like the word "acura" spelled out on the caliper...like do a black/white thing
