Looking for opinions - What color to paint brake parts?

I need to reinstall my dust shields now that I've determined it was my fan should making the grinding sound. (Yes, I'm a jackass.) But I might as well paint them before putting them back on the car.

Dust shields:
- Color?
- Should I use my POR15?

Calipers?
- Color?
- Is special paint really "required"?

Other parts worth painting while on the topic?

Any advice on cool or original colors appreciated.

Thanks,
Mike

For my dust shields I used the 1200 degree flat fireplace stove paint I had laying around for mine today. Good enough for my SL. Hopefully it will prevent them from rusting. I put about 3-4 coats on. I figure that should work as long as it doesn't flake off. Better than nothing anyway.
