86 911 Carrera Calliper color

I had my front calliper replaced and they all had been painted red by the former owner. Im getting a 1 stage paint correction done for a few swirls and scratches and considering doing it up with H9 ceramic including the Callipers and wondering if I should get the others stripped to original silver or just paint the new replaced calliper red to match?

what do you guys think?

Rebuilding mine currently and dropping them at Hudson Plating for zinc coating. They are in Delta.

Personally, I prefer the OEM factory style plated. My calipers were working fine, but just years and mileage had them looking a bit tired, so I sent them to PMB for a refurbish and new plating. They looked like new.

have them do a nickel strike first, then zinc, it will better seal the castings than zinc alone and if they do cadmium, definitely have that done, it's far superior to zinc.
